Dragon 86 Fairford 4th April 2021
Nice treat for Easter Sunday, Dragon 86 , 80-1066 U-2S arrived after an 11 hour flight from Beale AFB. Superb light for the 20 or so photographers who were present.

Thought about it but decided to give it a miss as did not think it would be kitted out
Thanks for posting

Nice! Some good sunlight and sky for a much welcomed visitor. I heard some speculative comments while down the 27 end about the 'band' around the PEG/dorsal - it's how they come out of the spray shop these days just the first time one's been like that at Fairford, nothing to do with new capes.

Great shots, the weather was kind to you, I don’t expect the BB tail code will last long.

They're corking shots, what great light. Here's to more planes, sunshine and freedom in the coming months!
