BAR report the USAF one as B707 86005 - arrived from Fairford.

This rarity visited Fairford 3 times during that Sept and made for some good video when it arrived on a rain soaked runway on the morning of Wed the 9th - loud bang and flame from one of the engines as something caused it to fail during reverse thrust. Vacated the runway by the North gate as well - very nice.

cheers,
Graham
