B52

Post by The Dudster »

Whilst driving along the A14 between Duxford and Felixstowe thias afternoon as i was reaching Bury 3 large aircraft passed to my left (im driving east) didn't get a clear proper view but they looked like B52's landing at either Mildenhall or Lakenheath could anyone confirm / deny the aircraft that i saw circling then landing please ?

Not B-52s, just 3 x KC-135s returning from a mission to refuel an E-4.

There were 3 contrails over St Ives about 1.30 this afternoon but didn't see what was on the end of them for cloud cover but seemed a bit high for aircraft going to Mildenhall/lakenheath.

You've had U-2s into Fairford , various QUID flights out & about with F-15s , and a couple of RC-135s ....... haven't heard any BUFFs , though.
