Tanker Ops
Live air-refuelling picture around Glasgow Prestwick, a regular transatlantic stop for military tankers (the USAF's 100th Air Refueling Wing is based at RAF Mildenhall, not here) — tankers airborne and on the ramp, likely refuelling activity in UK airspace, and the ISR & rare traffic that stages through.Tracking 260 aircraft within 650 km.

Air-refuelling activity
No tankers currently in a refuelling profile. Note: much AAR happens beyond ADS-B coverage or with receivers ADS-B-dark.
Tankers airborne
No tankers airborne in range.
Tankers on the ramp
No tankers detected on the ground. USAF tankers routinely go ADS-B-dark once parked.
ISR / recon watch
No ISR aircraft active in range.
Rare & notable
No rare or notable traffic in range right now.
“Likely AAR” is inferred from the instantaneous feed — a tanker at refuelling altitude and speed, offshore, with a military aircraft nearby. It is not a confirmed refuelling and does not track the racetrack over time. Military aircraft frequently operate ADS-B-off, so the true picture is busier than shown. For situational awareness only.
