x2 USAF C-17s into Boscombe Down today

Post by Tim Dix »

I was driving past Stonehenge this morning when i saw out of my side window a C-17 flying at low level. I figured it was on its way to Boscombe Down so took a punt and pulled off the A303 and stopped at the side of the road that runs along the end of the runway and was treated to seeing x2 USAF C-17's landing right over-head. Charleston ones. Nice surprise!
