Last Combat Shadow RAF Mildenhall 3-2-14

Post by Stu »

After being asked to cover the arrivals of the new MC-130J and CV-22B last year with Simplyplanes at RAF Mildenhall we were delighted to be asked back again to see off the last MC-130P 66-0215 of the 67th SOS, once again many thanks to all at the 352d SOG and 67th SOS for our superb morning with them

The old and the new

Hi Stu,

I should have come over. Shame it looks like it went into some cloud on departure but some nice prop wash on rotation.

Wow Stu! Great shots, and what a superb opportunity. :rock:
If enough power is good, & more is better, than WAY TOO MUCH should be just about right!!!
