The only system that'll be able to track them would be PlanePlotter at this point. They're non-Mode-S so don't show on Mode-S tracking sites.

 May be a daft question but does TARTAN39 out of Brize have any role in this? Photo opp? I recall the French tanked the Buffs the last time they were here.
A couple typhoons (Apollo flight) look like they’re heading to the tanker. My first thoughts were the typhoons may escort the bones.
More than a coincidence they're in the same area, methinks.

282.625 direct to REMSI by the sounds of it.

Assuming they got to GOW, which I don't think they did, puts it https://skyvector.com/?ll=54.0922616378 ... MSI%20EGVA
