B-1B Lancer launching from RAF Fairford

Rockwell B-1B Lancer 85-0089 from Dyess AFB, Texas, thunders out of RAF Fairford on September 4th 2016 under the call sign CROOK01. This aircraft is from the 489th BG, part of the 7th Bomb Wing and was taking part in a familiarisation flight in preparation for operation Ample Strike ’16 in the Czech Republic. The B-1 truly is a sensory overload at such close quarters!
