Mildenhall has had a few movements of interest in the last view days.
Highlight thus far is the arrival last night of RC-135S Cobra Ball 61-2662, seen here in the early morning light today through a fence. ( sorry, my tiny car doesn't do ladders...). Just a shame it wasn't parked the other way round to show the signature black wing and engines.

There are also 5 Qatari F-15QAs sat here with their attendant tankers awaiting onward delivery - 4 from Thursdays flight from St Louis and the other that has been stranded with a fuel leak from the last delivery batch.
