Hi All,

Some from a nice sunny morning at Lakenheath with lots of action. Quite a few images, I'm afraid, hope you make it through! Thanks for looking...

Some real quality shots there

I think 91-0313 Pyro23 was the first 48FW to receive gas from a KC-46 today? I didn't hear all of the comms but I think that is what the boomer said. I know a KC-46 was in ARA8 the other day but did they tank. Anyway just thought I would mention it incase someone knows different

Yes- dropped them at Cornfield in the Netherlands, I believe, but ready to be corrected if that's wrong. Good to see them tooled up. Many thanks for all the kind comments. Have to get back down there to catch the 'Have Glass' jet!

Well done Richard. Hope I can visit Lakenheath again in 2021 (after the Covid-19 sh.. :grr: measures have ended).

Regards,
Theo

Great set. BTW, which location did you use for the first shots of the F-16s on the deck

The departure shots were taken from a ladder over the gate on the perimeter, just to the left of the forest entrance as you look towards the base.
Again, thanks all for the comments.
