RAF Mildenhall Daily Log

[dowdalexander]

Yes i read 50992 off yesterday on SOG ramp.It was being looked at and towed around so assume now gone into hangar as it arrived with some sort of emergency.I'm assuming its a new based machine as Breeze 51 60220(though not read off only taken from sbs) dep this morning assume stateside back home.I believe same aircraft c/s was used last year when it arrived in August on swap over.

[stigorige]

They were getting 220 ready when I went looking for 50992, 992 came in on three engines so I guess it's still hangared.
Of course if it's a new SOG bird, then there will be plenty of time to get it.
Stig.

With my son (1st time visit) spent a few hours in the cold & gloom to see what we could see move. Did not bother this time, recording based stuff, but the few noted were :-

166511 KC-130J on Hs 51
83-0078 dep at 1128 as "RCH 356"
84-0156 arr at 1112 as "DUKE 66"

Shadow 61 did cloud checks before heading off to Fairford. Cloud ceiling at 100 was 400ft, and the came out of the cloud at 800ft. Not good !

Noted 8 based KC-135's & three MC-130's

A few shots obtained too.
