2. I'll need to dig out his name, but I read the autobiography of an RAF fast jet pilot a few years back, in which he stated he had seen something flying into RAF Mildenhall very late one Sunday night. It was triangular in shape (but not the B-2). I don't recall the details, but I think he was at that time on a ground tour, and had some kind of liaison responsibility between the RAF and USAF. He phoned Mildenhall the next day to enquire what the aircraft type was. They responded that there had been no aircraft movements that Sunday. He fairly rapidly then gets a call from someone in MoD telling him that he didn't see anything and to stop asking questions.
I cannot recall if it was on this forum or another,where on a darkneed night, some airman claimed to see a 'tailless' Vulcan type a/c land at Waddo in the dead of night and quickly ushered into hangar? It was part of an F-117/Aurora/B-21 topic...
Unless someone with the likes of Beags would like to comment if there have been any Vulcan accidents involving loss of tail?
Cheers
