Leuchars 05.06

Post by Calum1991 » Thu Jun 05, 2014 9:12 pm

Popped over to Leuchars to catch what I'm guessing will be the final USAF visitor to the base which is in the form of a KC-10A. It was still fairly busy when I arrived at 5ish with six typhoons of both squadrons flying. I've posted some record shots of the KC-10 and a typhoon shot that I am quite happy with.
