Air Force 1 arrival?

[Canary girl]

Are there any heads ups as to where/when Air Force 1 will land for the Queens funeral. I'm hoping RAF Mildenhall.

And in answer to when, Saturday

[gordonh]

Will it not be Sunday, departing from Washington on Saturday and usually a overnight flight.

[jd4781]

Could be, didn't think of that

2nd C-17 on approach to Northolt now…..06-6164. RCH3206…..rumoured to have another helo onboard!

[jules50]

Went to Mildenhall.

Went to Mildenhall.

Yes,strange….it actually was profiled for Northolt according to people there…..assume as the first one hasn’t left yet it was re-routed??

Well it won't, because if you look at its history on ADSB it's been nowhere near MCAS Quantico.

One helicopter into Northolt as a backup is probably all we'll see.

I believe the 2 C-17s into Mildenhall today were rumoured originally for Stansted, read into that what you will.

[raameagle]

RCH3206 was always going to Mildenhall!

[jules50]

Too much misinformation being fed around various forums.Best to just post when the facts are known.

[Nighthawke]

Now that should be the first forum rule!

Stansted had a pair of C-17s ahead of the visit last summer and AF1 didn’t go in there at any point.

Sorry for not following that particular aircraft/flight….was only going by what I was texted in a message! I don’t have all day to sit watching Adsb, like some seem to have!!

[jules50]

Its good when you are retired.

Yes, I’m also retired, but I still don’t have all day to devote to aircraft etc, even though I’d love to!
