Well there is something you don't see (well hear) every day.

I am presuming that was a flight of 4 or 5 Alberts over my house at 1500-2000 ft last night about 2230? Anyone enlighten me or was it a secret :}

They are USAFE C-130Es on detachement to RAF Fairford from Ramstein.
They are flying back and forth between Fairford and West Freugh.

thanks for that. The buggers were back again last night at some ungodly hour. Do they never sleep?

I think you'll have another couple of nights of it yet - I think they're going home on Fri.
