RAF A330

Post by BOBMEANSTREAK » Mon Aug 08, 2011 2:24 pm

At about 15:10 an RAF A330 crossed here (Swindon) at about 5000 feet heading in direction of Brize. Assuming Brize was the destination did anyone pick up the regn., I believe there are two at present? Mst admit looked very stable in the conditions today at this low level.

Can anyone confirm this as being ZZ330/MRTT016/EC-335 ?

Or was it ZZ331/MRTT017/EC-337 - as both have been test-flying for ages.
