Thanks for sharing, nice shot. Managed to miss this frame 3 times in recent days due to low cloud over my location. 😣 I hope it may show up again in the coming week, I still need this one .

Warts and all! It is presumably an ex-USAF example given the paint scheme.

Not unless Egyptair and Omega are actually USAF cover organisations.

Don't think the USAF had any 707 tankers though.

Yes of course, I had forgotten that the 135's are not 707's!
