170282/BH is at March (hope that is correct from memory- my log is in the hotel room where I can't get WiFi)

Also what looks like three ex French KC-135 plus an Omega B707


( By the way what a mega museum - loooong time since I have been here)

Two California vipers outside of the alert barns : 492 and 005 on the tails

20/1 inauguration day to day - bank holiday

The ex Singapore KC-135 were based at March, not sure if they are still there though.

The 4 active KC-135s for Metrea are:
N569MA (ex 63-8009 - 750 for Singapore)
N571MA (ex 61-0325 - 751 for Singapore)
N572MA (ex 59-1454 - 752 for Singapore)
N573MA (ex 63-8016 - 753 for Singapore)

The most recent movements mean that the three you saw were almost certainly:
N569MA - Flew from Chino Airport (KCNO) -> March ARB (KRIV) as SWB48 on the 17th Jan 2025
N571MA - Most recent flight KRIV -> KRIV as SWB47 on 17th Jan 2025 doing circuits at Edwards AFB (KEDW)
N572MA - Most recent flight KRIV -> KRIV as SWB31 on 18th Dec 2024 on the SoCal weapons ranegs

As for the other one:
N573MA - This one is in Japan at the moment

For Omega, I believe that is N707MQ (the other omega 707 is N707GF which is currently stationed at Myrtle beach (KMYR) and flew on the 17th Jan 2025 as OMEGA77)


Edit - N707MQ last flew KRIV -> KRIV on 16th Jan 2025 on the SoCal weapons ranges as OMEGA71 so that almost certainly will be your one.
