Re: French Air Force at raf st.mawgan
Imagine the RAF/ETPS aircraft you mentioned was QQ101, Avro RJ.100 based at Boscombe Down.
French KC-135s seem to be paying quite regular visits at the moment, not sure why.

Hi
Keep the reports coming in from St Mawgan.
I think the French KC-135 was 525 from memory as I saw that one on adsbExchange a few days back in the Cornwall area but as pointed out they are fairly regular.
Hopefully someone can give a more positive identification.

Hi Nick,
It was 525 (a KC-135RG), but the date was actually Tuesday 20th, not Monday 19th. Added confirmation of the date is that ZZ172 wasn't down your way on 19th, but was on the 20th.
