Rather have a KC10 than a B-52

[theplanespotter]

I had no school this morning so I popped up to leuchars and went to reres wood end because of the wind, I then heard the KC-10 engines so I assumed that it would taxi up the runway and take off into the wind. But it didn’t, it took off with the wind and had I known that I would have gone to my other spotting position but as I came to see, I was in the perfect spot. I have thrown in a few typhoons too, the eagle eyed among you will know thatmy last post said that I wouldn’t be at leuchars until August, thankfully that has changed.

photos from thursday too. Great to see the crowd there too

This big beazer took off with the wind and took me by surprise, i would have changed positions if I knew he was heading that way, but considering how far, and seriously the runway almost ran out, Im glad that I went to where I went to. But i didnt get my settings quite rights
