Mildenhall / Lakenheath 27/28 Jan

Post by Matt 5b » Wed Feb 09, 2022 6:30 pm

Some from a very enjoyable trip down from Yorkshire to the Hall/Heath at the back end of last month.
Some mixed weather but nice to catch the special tailed Reaper, special tailed RAF C-17 doing circuits at Mildenhall, some of the locals, a few SJ's, 'Axe' flight of F-35's returning from Norway and a stunning sunset greeting the last few departures.

Also a nice set, like the RAF C-17 framed in the trees.
