The Hercs are nice and easy to see as they are all parked along beck row opposite folly rd

And not one of them routed over me just a bit too far south

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.

In a huddle off the east coast at present before heading out into the N Sea AARA

Trade or training ?

The Eagles all arrived just after 17.00 hrs, presumably there was a problem at Lakenheath.
The F-15C's arrived as Balls 1-4 and Akita 1-2 tie ups unknown

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

It was FLEX 61 as posted on here .

Any information on how long the KC-46 is staying.. other than "a few days".. be nice if it was still there at the weekend. Thanks.
