Hi can anyone tell me were 93-1039 is parked up please tried to view it last evening and couldn't see it thanks raptor22

It got towed into Hangar 803 on south side of the airfield yesterday..

The Chinook is possibly ZK560, it's been in the USA for some time now on trials (and my last one!)

Was in bringing filming crew for an Amazon movie.

Nice set there mike.. certainly beats sitting at Lakenheath, which is what I was doing yesterday (

Today's sortie was 15-10 til 18-25 is it likely to be these times all week? Thanks

Going by the opening times for the airfield it looks that way. Bar Friday where it might be morning/lunchtime possibly.

Hello All, below I’ve listed the most commonly used call signs used by the 100ARW/352SOW. Obviously there are others that especially the SOG use but they are only used infrequently and on deployments. Any additions welcome. 100th Aerial Refuelling Wing (KC135R/Ts) -QUID/LAGER/HOBO/RAKE/EVAC10E_(usua...

Thanks SniperElite, didn't realise it was at Mildenhall, I've missed or forgot its departure from Lakenheath He departed Lakenheath around 10:30 on 30/01/25 on a short Airtest before landing at Mildenhall, there should be another delivery in March and this should tag onto them. I believe Lakenheath...

Only shut due to the straggler Qatari F15 parked on the Charlie North Ramp blocking it for anything larger than a fighter. Should be due off in March.

The based 135 not long back from PDM at Tinker, they all arrive back in unmarked AMC markings. Should be marked up soon. Nice catch with the UC35

10-3077 C146A is now also based under the 67th Special Operations Squadron

Rumour on the fence yesterday that 00333 came back with AMC on the tail, rather than USAFE. Couldn't find it to check for myself. Should appreciate confirmation. Also, is it permitted to report aircrew names, as painted under the cockpit? I know that 100 proof has the CO's name and he is on the bas...

Does anyone know when KC-135T 59-1470 became "High Life". Noted yesterday (16th August) as such.

It was painted up after the Team Mildenhall Heritage Day on the 16th I believe. It should have hogh life nose arts on both sides now too.

As of 26/08/24 60-0333 KC135R has returned from Tinker which completes the 100ARW back to the full complement.

If I'm correct the GF on the tail is Grand Forks? Which if this is the case it belongs to the 348RS/319RW. I remember the nostalgia of seeing Grand Forkes KC135s at Mildenhall on a fairly regular basis. Nice shots by the way

As of 20/08/24 16-5839 MC130J is at Lajes as Peril99, Departed Mildenhall Monday.

To update the post, 09-5713 MC130J is no longer with the 352SOW and 59-1470 has now become 'High Life' and sports a second nose art on the right side of the Airframe, unveiled yesterday.

I believe it was in the same week as the on Base do yesterday. 60-0333 which was high life is due back from Tinker and I think that should have the 'Skipper III' nose art applied
