2 USAF KC-10 + 1 USAF KC-135 - Prestwick Airport 18-DEC-2016

Almost at the shortest day of the year, the light was pants on Sunday 18th December 2016 when these USAF Tankers bolted for home from Prestwick Airport at 9am
Felt sorry for the poor passengers of RCH239, a second KC-135 that went tech (80075) as they didn't get off it for 5 hours!

The 3rd baby KC-10 was from Travis AFB, Fairfield, California, I believe.

No, it is from Mcguire as well, as it says on the tail.

Beautiful captures Jim! The first looked like he's part of the Wyoming Air National Guard, the 2nd one, the KC-135 Stratotanker was from the Ohio Air National Guard, and the 3rd I could not make out, even with me magnifying glass (me eyes are a weak lot) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
