REQ SEATLE AREA
Considering a visit in to distant future - to make it worthwhile how many KC46 are in the local area currently or have a lot been delivered?

Re: REQ SEATLE AREA
USAF haven't had a single KC-46 delivered as of yet, believe the first is due within the next couple of months.

Re: REQ SEATLE AREA
You weren't incorrect. The ones at Kelly have not been delivered to the USAF, they are Boeing property...

Re: REQ SEATLE AREA
Dave, early Aug I saw 7 at Boeing Field (one of which was reported as N461FT) and 22 complete at Everett, all seen from public areas. A lot easier to get them now!
Re: REQ SEATLE AREA
I was there two weeks ago and counted a similar number at each airfield, along with an Aussie P8 at Boeing field. The ones at Everett didn’t seem to be going anywhere.
