Odd unknown mode s (AE5228) departed Cannon AFB New Mexico now headed towards Newfoundland.
Speed 330 knots and at 21k altitude.. Guess MC-130J type perhaps headed for CYYT.

Several KC-135's just departed Mildenhall UK tonight seem SW bound towards Lajes.
#58-0100,59-1475 and #62-3540..

I believe they’re meeting 2x C-17s that left CONUS earlier today. EDDIE98,99 went pretty far offshore and met with at least 1x C-17 that was pinging for a short while.

Mildenhall KC-135 tankers now showing transiting Gibraltar. One has dropped to 19k.
Weird stuff overnight too as last night Grissom tankers MASH-92,93 0500z came East out over the Atlantic towards Lajes then seen again
rtb off the East coast at 0830z with MASH-92 an hour behind.. Navy related?

As far as I know, MASH91,92 were also working with a C-17 heading east RCH670 (who never showed up on any tracking sites). Definitely something interesting going on.

Could be 62AW C-17's carrying NATO extra haz cargo :). They avoid traveling over land allies on way in and out of Europe.
Gibraltar is favorite transition point thru the Med.

Here comes GOLD-11 #58-0120 out of Miss to the Northeast.. Guess they did a tail swap as yesterday's broken GOLD-11 was #60-0341

That live streaming link isn't working for me now. Is it going all of the time or just occasionally?
Yeah looks like they have a technical issue - it is from a FOX News channel in Philadelphia

The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported.
