Heavy Metal!!

Hi, I've finally found somewhere where I can discuss my aviation interests (mostly military, but i don't mind commercial stuff). Now with the Intro out the way I can get down to business.
Not sure if any of you are formiliar/ are local to Brize but i thought i would discuss my recent sightings:
Today (22/7/06) I saw an AN-26?? fly into Brize in heavy storms, After the storm had cleared I decided to go over and check out any activity down there. In recent months the RAF at Brize have started to tighten up on viewing spots around Brize (Over growing hedges, Barriers etc.). Once i got to my usual spot over looking the airfield I was :mad: to find that my usual space had also been filled in with trash! So on my way past the airfield I managed to get a view of some of the visiting aircraft on the ground, trying to avoid crashing into oncoming traffic in the proccess. On the groung I managed to see:
- DC-10 or MD-11 with DIA marked on the tail engine
Anyone shed any light on who operates this aircraft?
Cheers
HM!!
