Sentry circling over Lincolnshire

It's been in orbit for the last few hours. Even with my 400mm and 2X extender, it still seems far away...

The one over Lincs / Cambs / Peterborough this morning was on station for around 3 hours was coming up on the Navbox as E3A Sentry, NATO 02, (LX-N90453) and there was a RAF Sentry further north around the York area doing the same thing according to other forums which may have been NATO35. Nice to see it... :clap:
