Mildenhall 07.10.23 F-35 and C-40 content...

[WinchesterMGF]

A good couple of visits to Mildenhall yesterday.
6 of the 10 HL F-35s got away in the morning with the support of the based 100th KC-135s and KC-10s from Spangdahlem. Good of the 1st flight of HLs to use the underun after a year of watching many transient fast jets use the Alpha taxiway and avoid my camera at the fence.
C-40 SAM109 departed back to the US in the afternoon, having arrived in the early hours from the East. 01-0041 according to ADSB but it's another US frame that has had any numbers removed.

Very nice mate, the light is lovely on them. Thanks for posting, I wondered what they would look like from the road.

Lovely shots Andrew, some superb light on those, C-40 shots especially

[slogen51]

Yes another good set of photos - superb lighting and exposure

Ouch! A C-40 without a serial. Nurse!

The F-35A rear shot does look a bit vulgar!
