AirTanker’s first flight as an airline

This Voyager flew a couple of weeks ago as a civilian aircraft on Air Tanker's AOC.

I wonder what callsign it used (did it borrow ASCOT).

Did it pay eurocontrol charges or was it exempt?

I wonder whether the bottom line cost to MOD was cheaper than using a chartered airliner or indeed using the same aircraft but with a military registration and military crew instead of the Registration G-VYGG

At Brize and Akrotiri was the PIC, Captain Scott or Sqd Ldr Scott (RAFVR)
