Also I saw ATOM-1 WC-135B #61-2667 departing Lincoln Neb climbing slight Northwest then
dropped off radar.The USAF's only remaining Nuke sniffer plane.
Still not retired. Came down from North over Scotland and down into Mildenhall earlier today. I only heard routine ATC comms from it and nothing to say where it had come from (I've not noticed it since it went up over Canada). Callsign was again ATOM01
Maybe to do some monitoring during the Russian military exercise in the Northern Atlantic.
