Had to run out but checking ADSBX replay GOLD-81 dragged whoever straight up into Canada
seems heading for Alaska.
GOLD-91 dropped its receivers to GOLD-92 KC-135 #63-3502 who also headed NW into Canada.
Guess some Navy folks from Miramar headed North for now.
Checking the baldgeek GOLD-92 headed to PAEI aka Eielson AFB Alaska up near Fairbanks for some 24 hour daylight.

Speaking of Altrav CLEAN-63 KC-135 #62-3578 departed McGuire headed East across the Pond at FL360.
CLEAN73/59-1468 also on his way accross the pond from KPIT

Saw CLEAN-63 yesterday into Moron.. Maybe working way to MidEast to get the Minnesota 148th FW F-16's?
Says will be back in the Summer

More than 300 airmen from the 148th to deploy this spring | www.WDIO.com
Not sure what the CLEANs are doing yet Mark, RCH255 has just arrived at LERT on CE052 which will be for the MN

CLEAN-61,71 are currently trailing each other off Newfoundland look bound for LERT Spain too.

BOBBY-63 Travis KC-10 #82-0191 off Travis enroute PAED Elmendorf AK.
Rumor has the 302nd FS F-22's based at Elmendorf deploying next week to UK for a stop.
A F-22 Europe deployment was mentioned upcoming soon in USAF Mag article I posted last week.
I figured would be the 1st FW from Langley since they have bunch of F-22's currently at Red Flag thru end of this
coming week but maybe for later rotation this year.

BOBBY-72 KC-35 #57-1419 from AZ headed towards AK.
McGuire space A shows KC-10 going to AK Elmendorf later tonight.
Non-stop airline flight from Seattle to London is 10 hours,add 3 hours to Anchorage so assuming
F-22's will have to stop at say Bangor enroute.. 13 hours is too long of a time to be strapped in that type
not to mention how thirsty those F-22's are.Maybe get real lucky and they swing down to Langley for a stop but small
chance of that.

Four more BOBBY's off tonight headed NW dodging small storms.
BOBBY-61 KC-46 #15-46009 off McConnell
BOBBY-62 KC-135 #59-1450 off AZ
BOBBY-71 KC-46 #17-46036 off McConnell.
KC-46's picking up more and more Altrav work these days..
BOBBY-73 KC-10 #79-1947 off McGuire Westbound.
My WAG says since all tankers headed to Elmendorf and none so far staging up in the Northeast they
will only drag the F-22's to Bangor perhaps at most Tuesday.Still a long haul.

Here's the great circle route from Elmendorf AFB to RAF Mildenhall from www.gcmap.com:

Seattle to London is over 4100 nm.
