About to touch down on Runway 12 at Prestwick. Arriving westbound as CFC483 from NAS Sigonella, Sicily for an overnight stop. Taken on strength new in 1980. Regularly used by the Maritime Proving and Evaluation Unit at CFB Greenwood, Nova Scotia. First aircraft to complete the Aurora Incremental Modernization Project (AIMP) in 2004. Participated in Operation IMPACT against ISIS forces in the Middle East from 2012, additionally equipped with satellite communications. Now showing the new "lumps and bumps" of recent electronic systems upgrades. This photo is copyright © David A. Montgomery, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
