Biden "mini" state visit

[Reach 392]

Quite a low profile visit, but President Biden is due to be in the UK/London very early July before the NATO Summit in Vilnius. He is expected to meet King Charles III & Rishi Sunak among other engagements.

Assuming everything is still going to plan we can expect a flurry of RCH flights into Northolt/Mildenhall/Fairford/Wherever from next week.

"Mini", with the equivalent of a third world country's air force for support.

Stansted is also expected to be busy. Indeed a couple of USAF C-17's are expected there tomorrow lunchtime which may be connected with the visit.

To save reading through the link the NATO Heads of State summit is 11-12 July which would suggest a UK visit on 10 or 11 July

6 Chinooks over Poland heading west. Unusual for a Saturday. Maybe these are heading to the UK?

[jules50]

As far as I am aware there are 5 CH47,S due tomorrow from Germany into EGWU but everything is subject to change.

Sleepy Joe does not really like the Brits but has to follow through with the "special relationship"
