Interesting reading. Nice photo on page 49 of three LN F15C's using flares. Also interesting is that the HH60's are quoted as being based at both LN & AV(thought they moved from LN to AV in 2018?). Mentions RC135's moving to Fairford in 2023(CV22's & MC130's to SP/KC135's to RS,but no time frame given for these). A lot has happened since this was written. The two new VC25B's will not have AAR so to cut costs.

Thanks for that link Skymaster, good spot; a fascinating read and quite a useful document to have for reference, even if it is out of date as soon as it's published!
