Successful trip to RAF Fairford for plane spotting

Successful trip to RAF Fairford for plane spotting

With everything going on at RAF Fairford (everyone here knows what we're talking about 😉 , a last minute 24H trip to the UK from The Netherlands was executed this weekend.
We were very lucky by only missing out on 2 of the 12 B-1'S and captured all of the B-52's as well.
Added (and very highly appreciated) bonus was the launch of 2 Bones, only 30 minutes after our arrival. Quite a successful day indeed 😎
