Does anyone know why so many RCH flights have been coming into Brize recently? Presumably dropping off munitions?

I'm guessing you mean for the Ukr troops being trained here, otherwise why not direct to Rzeszow etc?

I heard one depart this morning just after 9am

There's nothing new about RCH flights heading into Brize over the years, just a shame these days they're 17's rather than C5's :(

From what I can see on Radarbox24, it seems all bar one of them have visited Kirtland AFB/Albequerque a day or two before arriving at Brize.

RCH flights do make appearances at Brize every so often but there has been at least six(?) in the space of the last week which to my knowledge, is a little more than we would normally see.
