Great catches in the middle of K(D)C-10 heaven!

EE isnt ZK307 as that was replaced with a newer airframe which i cant remember off the top of my head. See the based Typhoon list on FC in the Leuchars section.

Nice catch on EE, it was one of the QRA jets that intercepted the SAS B737 with radio problems.
