More KCs I'm afraid but the conditions were better, plus a couple of variations in type as well...
Not AFRC but the first arrival.
Image
Also not AFRC but OHIO ANGs are nice too.
Image

Image

Image
Next up something a bit bigger!
Image

Image

Image
The first reserve bird a Tinker.
Image
Noseart "So help me God".
Image

Image

Image

Image
Then the light improved so I shot this on the ramp.
Image
Next up a regular Air Force KC, soon to be an RAF RC135! Great light on this one...
Image

Image

Image
Back to the reserve a March bird.
Image

Image

Image
Then another Tinker, I think. No markings except noseart, turned off at Delta unfortunately.
Image

Image

Image
Tinker no 3.
Image
More noseart.
Image

Image
Something unusual at the Hall these days a queue to land!
Image
First 165832 C40 USN.
Image

Image

Image
Then, yes another Tinker!
Image

Image
Strato Gas JP8...
Image

Image

Image
As the sun falls, the SOG rises. Talon71 70024.

Great work Stig. Some lovely light in there.

Any idea why there is such an increase in traffic these last couple of weeks? Hopefully some of these stay until Friday as I hope to pop down.

Regards

Aaron

The traffic is due to units changing over at TDY locations further East. The KCs that arrive one day tend to leave the next, so I'm afraid it is unlikely that any of the ones present on Tuesday will be left.
Might be some others though, who knows!
Cheers, Stig.
