RAF Fairford just posted this on Twitter too. Does this mean a deployment of B52s likely?

[Lordhintonlewis]

Yes i would expext so within the next week or so RAF Fairford twitter used the PCB post direct

[SamP]

The RAF Fairford Twitter account is run by you, Wayne, is it not? Not surprising that it used the PCB post directly.

633, second post refers B-52. Minot is home for B-52H. So.... We'll see.

[TREBAX_RAVEN]

sorry must have missed that
would be good to see some more of them

N590FE has left Minot 7 minutes ago and is showing on FR24.

[big john]

According to FR24 it landed at 06:43 But it was working Approach at 06:15 (woke me up.) so was probably earlier.

[Lordhintonlewis]

0641 was actual landing time
