Been awhile and great to meet up with some of the guys :thumbs: Hats off to the crew in the Voyager and that landing this afternoon at RAF Mildenhall, in some very difficult conditions, well done.

Don't know about that, but i have noticed that RAF grey aircraft do look grubby quite quickly. Maybe it's the matt paint they use. The paint used by other air forces, notably the Lufwaffe, don't seem to mark in the same way.
