     TURF 12 (B52; labeled as such on adsb sites) was captured on
ADSBExchange in the 1600z-1700z window this UTC day being possibly
refuelled by two tankers over water east of the UK, and seen headed
northwest until he disappeared over the east coast of northern Scotland.

     11175.0 was active at 2040z and 2046z with RED RIVER (fair levels)
calling TURF 12 for a radio check. TURF 12 (unheard to split seconds of
audio in noise floor) eventually worked RED RIVER for radio check. At 2049z
RED RIVER worked TURF 12 (unheard) and RED RIVER stated "confirm JU number"
and perhaps "5065 BAD DELTA" (weak/broken; presumed satcom chatter). At
2110z RED RIVER called TURF 11 (suggesting a "flight" of B52s involved) and
eventually raised TURF 12 (fair to unheard; deep fading) to discuss TURF 11
and various.

     Apparently enroute back to CONUS?
