Came up empty from RAF Mildenhall to the rescue of its stablemate 95-0102 which had diverted into Prestwick that morning. Seen climbing away from Runway 30 in the late afternoon heading for Paris Le Bourget as RCH4182 to complete the mission carrying the transferred load, a presidential VH-92 Patriot helicopter. Carries the markings of the USAF AMC's 437th AW/315th AW stationed at Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina. Its nose art is a stylised 315th AW badge. This photo is copyright © David A.
