J-5238 was Grey 11 and J-5017 special tail was Grey 12 but they departed together so that’s probably your pair. They mentioned A-A refuelling which fits.

Can anyone help with the following from the first week please?

PC-12 r/n HB-FOG which came in on the arrivals day. Does anyone know when this left Leeming? I can`t see this on ADS-B history at all, only it`s arrival.

Wed. 13.11.24 (2nd Wave) - Were there a pair c/s "Talent 61-62" that launched for the tea-time wave?

Fri. 15.11.24 (1st Wave) - A total of ten a/c launched, "Sixpack 51-54", "Grey 11-14", but does anyone know the c/s of the other two please?

Putting the registration in the ADS-B search and using the history section shows it left at 12:18 on the 13th.
