Whats the 100ARW up to? There are 8 QUID flights airborne at the moment and more or less over Lincoln. That's a sizable part of the fleet.

100 ARW Elephant Walk the following 12 KC-135''s did a taxi down the runway calling Qid 29 flight
62-3540, 57-2605, 57-1474, 58-0113, 57-1493 57-1440, 59-1513, 58-0100, 63-8878, 62-3551, 60-0324, 58-0036

Then a little later a mass launch as follows
Qid 29 62-3540, Qid 27 57-1474, Qid 25 57-1493, Qid 23 57-1440, Qid 22 59-1513, Qid 21 63-8878, Qid 19 60-0324
Qid 18 58-0036 then 15 minutes later Qid 20 62-3551, Qid 24 58-0100
Also Qid 89 58-0113 departed between Qid 20 and 24

A post on Scotavnet has stated that these were as follows (but there is some confusion that the callsigns were actually 'Rack 61-64') :-

"Thanks to a post by 'Thunderbolt2' on the SMAS list (egunmovements@googlegroups.com), the four were:
91-0324 494 FS
91-0309 494 FS
96-0201 48FW spcl
97-0221 492 FS
"

They probably were flex - it sounded like buck or rack to me but another site had them as Flex 61
