Questions about Carol refuelling track
Two questions about the Carol refuelling track above the Frisian isles: how many kilometers is one round? I believe the KDC-10 takes around ten minutes to complete one round. At what speed does it normally fly? Any information is welcome.

The full run is about 350km. Could be quite a bit less depending on the length of the legs and how tight they take the turns. Speed is usually in the range of 220-250.
