RAF A330 ZZ336 " VESPINA " LANDS AND TAXIES AT PRESTWICK AIRPORT

ZZ336 is the RAF Voyager that has been converted to a VIP role to carry the British royal family, Prime Minister and government officials. Named " Vespina " after having the " Global Britain " livery applied in 2020. Although named Vespina that name is never used in call signs allocated to the aircraft. As it was the then prime minister Boris Johnson that ordered the aircraft to be painted in the UK themed scheme it was known in some circles as " Boris Force One " or " Bojo One "! On the date of this video the aircraft was operating as " TARTAN 19 " and had just spent the past four and a half hours refuelling RAF Eurofighter Typhoons over the North Sea. The RAF Voyager fleet remains based at Prestwick as part of Operation Mace ( mobility, agile combat employment ) Vector whilst the runway is being resurfaced at RAF Brize Norton, scheduled for completion by mid November 2026. ‪@derekbeattieimages‬ #vespina #royalairforce #voyager #aviation #a330
