Mildenhall 28/1/25 - PAT104 plus bits

Post by johnwickenden » Wed Jan 29, 2025 8:48 pm

Haven't contributed much on here recently as I had a very quiet end to 2024. Popped into Mildenhall yesterday on my way north (it's north for me!), just in time to see the Army Citation land. It came in from Rzeszow in SE Poland as PAT104 and stayed a couple of hours

Also, my first sighting of the now based Wolfhound. Unfortunately parked nose on to the Pollards Lane crash gate

I'm sure it has probably been mentioned on the forums somewhere, but one of the based KC135s is now devoid of unit markings

and a couple of pieces of nose art

Its gonna rain, its gonna rain till the levee breaks, a tidal wave of fear and pain washes us away, another fight into the night until nothing else remains, how do we find harbour from the Hurricane?

The based 135 not long back from PDM at Tinker, they all arrive back in unmarked AMC markings. Should be marked up soon. Nice catch with the UC35
