Hi All, I passed by Mildenhall during the early hours of Wednesday morning to see the cobra ball that arrived Tuesday evening and noted 4 white tops. Three will be the cobra ball, constant phoenix and the deployed RC-135W but can someone tell me the ID of the fourth please. Thanks Simon

I'm sorry to say that there wasn't a 4th white top on base in the early hours of Wednesday 2nd August.
Have you got your date wrong?? There was a 4th on Thursday morning, but not on Wednesday morning. OLIVE56 RC-135V 64-14844 arrived 19.32BST on Wednesday.

Thanks Bob, definitely Wednesday morning but at 3:30am so probably a KC illuminated in the lights and parked with the others confused me. Cheers Simon

Could well be - I think that there are one or two based ones parked in that general area.
