The ultimate bird scarer, KC-135E ANG 72602 fitted with TF-33-PW-102 engines, all sadly retired in 2009.
Photographed on the 30.11.2006 at RAF Mildenhall
Good luck every one.

A real KC-135, scanned from a 5" x 3.5" colour print, taken 28 years ago on a basic pre-digital era 'Practica' - quality poor, but enjoy !
