Military escort flight
On Saturday I noticed what looked like a military tanker plus 3 fighters in escort formation at high cruising altitude headed north along the California coast. I couldn't tell what kind of fighters as they were literally just dots in the sky. Was that a normal long distance flight for the fighters or special escort for the larger plane? TIA

A picture of your gun is worth 1,000 words. A crappy picture is only worth 100.

Aerial refueling exercise?

Yep, and I bet it was a Guard or Reserve weekend.

Possible refueling for the SOS Podesta returning from the Korean peninsula??

Considering the position, you probably witnessed a KC-135 or KC-10 refueling a flight of fighters on a training mission for both sides of the pump. If it was a "fighter drag", they would have been west-bound. Regards, Clark
