I’m all over this!
The best i’ve seen is 2 RAF Hercules flying from the the UK to some Norwegian base called Bodo at the top of Norway about 10 days ago.They do it quite regularly, I think the UK army train in arctic conditions.
The early warning planes don’t seem to fly too far beyond the UK coast and even they seem to be up no more than 3 afternoons a week!
Obviously listening to the govt message on staying home and don’t travel unless it’s absolutely necessary.
I'd expect them to be on for takeoff and or landing, every other plane seems to decide when to turn them off, if C5, C17, F16, B52s sqwawk all day and night, I'd guess the b1s would be as well, idk
Probably completely fabricated. Planefags would have been all over four b1s like flies on shit, especially at 8pm est..
Maybe they allowed it as a joke

would their transponders be on?
Unlikely if they're there for a purpose.
wrong. in foreign airspace, especially NATO airspace, their IFF would 100% be on
Especially if it was just to "send a message".
