Is it an Omen at Leeming?

RAF C-130's ZH865 'Omen1' and ZH877 'Omen2' arriving, and departing, in some glorious afternoon/evening light at RAF Leeming last Thursday, as part of 'Exercise Chameleon'.

Very nice :thumb:
If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Nice shots - of what are probably the most anonymous looking Hercs ever seen. Are they from Air America or is the clue in the name of the Op?

Matt, nice pics, but it's an Exercise rather than an Operation.
