Recent Mildenhall

Post by Ashley Wallace » Wed Nov 12, 2014 12:29 am

Guys,

Spent a couple of days at the local over the past week with some great movements in some lovely winter light as well.

Here are a few images.

Regards,

Ash

Nice images, but the copyright watermark is really distracting.

Yep, awesome shots Ashley :thumb: Had to look twice to see the watermarks :huh:
Great catch on the E-11A, and loving the second head on RC, really showing those blades off. Just check the unit, the 24th ERS?

Lovely work - the RC's especially but really liking all the shots of aircraft taking the Echo taxiway. Very nice angles offered as they swing onto the under-run.

Thanks for all your kind comments guys, really appreciate them :)

SaudiKev - All the RC-135V/W's belong to the 38th RS but the crews flying these missions out of Mildenhall are actually flying as part of the 24th Expeditionary Reconaissance Squadron.

Gotcha, Ash :thumb:
I would normally report the aircraft's unit, as you say the 38th', but fair enough for this mission detachment.

The E11 looks like it has changed reg ? Is there a history of this aircraft adopting different regns ???

I think you're seeing evidence of it's previous marks - N770AG
