It does when it is a 757 which is passenger configuration - they use the 747 for cargo ops. The company is National Airlines.

Estimate less than 50 pax, which suggests this deployment is going to be very low key.

Guessing they'll be AFRC jets from the 93BS which has 3 H's which have never been reported visiting Fairford.

In Air Force talk I believe those are called "the advanced echelon", some of them were out on the ramp to process the pax.
