Most likely the tac callsign for the tankers Roger I would think
Can’t think what else it would logically be

[Seacat192]

Thanks Max

[Skywatcher]

No worries at all I only just made it as was coming back home from cardiac rehabilitation physio in Swindon and just saw them when they where holding 27 so was able to see them depart full length departure for both as I don’t drive I was dropped off and was able to see them depart and then walked to the farm shop in Welford to get excellent sausage roll for lunch and a black coffee from Jess
Definitely is Scooby Dobby Doo tac they been talking a/a 360.825

[Seacat192]

Thanks again.

Hope the physio went well?

[Skywatcher]

It did thanks on level four now level one was during the very early stages of recovery at Southampton with OT physio team there which obviously was very light physio to get me moving again
