Did anyone else see a Tanker and F15 in refueling position flying south over downtown Baton Rouge about 10 minutes ago.

Saw fly over Burbank on my way back to work from Chick Fil A; pretty wild.

Was it an F15. Looking at my photo it looks more like a F22.

Those pilots usually wait a little longer after dropping their ordinance to refuel.

It was definitely an eagle or mudhen flying right on the wing of a 4 engine big bird, couldn't tell what kind.

I wonder if that's a USAF C-130 or a USN C-130 from Belle Chasse.

News here said they would be flying over Little Rock at 12:30, but never said what day. Coming back to work from lunch and happened to look up and there they were.

100 year anniversary of air refueling. They are taking a tour in various areas. KC135 originating out of Key Field in Meridian is picking up various aircraft. The Key brothers of Meridian pioneered mid air refueling.
