Clearing Runway 30 at Link Foxtrot in anticipation of some well-earned rest at Prestwick. Arrived as OMEGA11 after assisting with the tanking of Japan ASDF F-15s crossing transatlantic to RAF Coningsby. Delivered new to Martinair in 1978 as PH-MBT. Leased out to various operators, including to KLM from 1989 to 1992. Converted to tanker configuration, entered military service with the R Netherlands AF as T-264 from 1995 until withdrawn from use in 2019. Joined Omega Air as N264DE in 2020.
