It'll be interesting to see where it comes from to get to Pease, may be nowhere of interest but who knows.

it’s coming from Pease the security forces main base…… pick up before coming to FFD

B-52 specific equipment has been seen moved to the south side. Theres no real reason for them to get chute packing platforms out if there wasnt something coming in soon...

That's normally the first signs of a deployment visible this side of the Atlantic.

BUFFs due according to another site

An Atlas 767 is due into Minot from Biggs later today (as per flight aware). May be the same one due into Fairford from Pease on Tuesday*.
Currently pointing to Minot B52s again.

The 767 is N649GT

Remember this is a military forum and civilian aircraft should only be included insomuch as they are relevant to the thread. I.e. We don’t need a blow by blow account of their journey.

I can't find a thread for the deployment in August and September 2020. Someone said off-forum at the time that the six Buffs arrived with only thirty minutes' notice to test Fairford's readiness. Out of interest, did anyone on here know earlier?
