I have left the thread alone but once again, please remember it’s a mess thread and therefore the below applies, no politics.

Thanks both, i Had missed 22-46102's transfer to BFI which explains why I sisny see it in Everett.

There are two unmarked KC46’s on the military ramp at Boeing Field. My records suggest that only Line number 1331 22-46102 should be there, can anyone assist with the other. It wasn’t the test bed N464KC as that was seen in its usual location.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Not attempted...

Yeah, it was a brief visit and it’s great to see them fly but we don’t take the tail numbers and it was 06:00, Everett in 10 minutes.

All P8’s no C40’s seen and the growlers were not attempted.

Ah, so the helicopters have arrived then.

Air Tanker have an exclusive agreement with the MOD until, I believe, 2035 by which time I understand the aircraft will be reaching their fatigue limits.

Steve, I have approved the posts, I have also merged the KC46 posts into the KC46 thread, https://www.fightercontrol.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=287&t=196040. With regards to the others the OTT/Heads up is not the correct place so I have moved them to the fighter control mess https://www.fightercont...
