Just wondering is there C130 training at preswick today?

Ones been taking off flying round then taking off again about 6 times in the last hour unless they have a fleet of them there that I haven't noticed.

Is it RAF or foreign?

If RAF it could be CPT (Co-Pilot training), could be MCT (Monthly continuation training - for Captains), could be an OCU trip (Operational Conversion Unit), or could be an IRT (Instrument Rating Test).

Brize's runway is closed this afternoon due edge lighting maintenance so Sqn training sorties will find other places to train.

IRTs are now completed solely in the sim.
