great comms i had on flamborough track people, the B52 calling CHILL23 states he had around 5 tankers on a so far 14hour shift today, and was over france / germany for exercise POLYGON. German typhoons pulled out the ex but french mirage and rafale's joined in. French tanker RC135 offered fuel but he never needed it, then he was a naughty B52 pilot said the language barrier today on country transit handovers were " a pain in the ASS". wished everybody spoke english. Oh dear bad man lol. they were his words and not mine.He will now be on HF on route to america with shannon / shanwick as QUID81 not long passed my location near hull, england heading back to mildenhall.Any more information would be fantastic to have.
