We first got there at 7am, waiting for the B-1s to depart at half past, which they promptly did!

We then went to Brize Norton, but nothing ended up landing over our spot, apart from this Kalitta 747 bringing more cargo into Fairford.
Kalitta Air - Boeing 747-400F - N766CK (CMB505)
Then back to Fairford for the B-52 departures, and whilst waiting, an Atlas 747 had landed, but had to wait for the B-52s to depart before being given taxi clearance, and then ZZ336 (RAF Voyager) was approaching into Brize in the distance.

Then shortly after, one of the B-52s on the mission departed, with the other one cancelling for unknown reasons.

As we got back to the car, a C-130 was cleared to takeoff so I quickly got my camera out.
