As a result of the runway renovation at RAF Mildenhall, England, many of the transports that typically are seen at that base, such as this MC-130H Combat Talon special operations airlifter, have been moved temporarily to RAF Lakenheath, a fighter base located relatively close to Mildenhall. The flightline construction at RAF Mildenhall began in March and was scheduled for completion by the end of August. The flightline at RAF Fairford is also being used as an alternate location for some of RAF Mildenhall's aircraft. The Air Force reports the ramp space management has proven to be a challenge, but operations have continued normally.
