MRTT Request, 06.11.20

[David Moore]

Hi.

I apologise for asking a question which must be very dull for the locals. I am locked in in the UK so spotting opportunities are very limited. An MRTT just flew westbound at 34,000' over my back garden, my SBS showed hex 480C41, MMF95.

360radar reports this as T-054 but other sources say T-055. Please would anyone be able to confirm which aircraft actually departed on this flight? (possibly headed for Shannon?)

Thank you very much for any help

David,
the aircraft is indeed headed for Shannon. AFAIK, globalexchange.com showed the tails correctly the last weeks (T-055 in this case).
Don't know if anyone switched het x-ponder lately....

T-054 is currently on deck at Eindhoven (visual confirmed).
So T-055 is on it’s way to Shannon

Thank you both for your help, Bennie and lucatransavia
