RAF 101 Squadron handed over tanking duties to 216 Squadron in Middle East

After 22 years of almost continuous operations in the Middle East, the crews of 101 Squadron handed over their aerial refueling duties to the incoming 216 Squadron.

The squadron and its VC10s have been providing air-to-air tanking since the first Gulf crisis in August 1990.
