Open Skies Departure

Some of you know I have a particular affinity for anything based on the KC-135 airframe, so I was quite pleased to photograph an OC-135B 61-2672 OPEN SKIES aircraft departing RAF Mildenhall this morning. These aircraft fly unarmed reconaissance missions to ensure compliance with international weapons treaties. Beautiful sunny day in Suffolk county BTW.
