REQ : 100th ARW Tanker names

As you may or may not be aware, each tanker serving with the 100th ARW has a name. The plate just inside the door usually shows what that particular aircraft is called ...

For example :-

59-1492 is called "Boss Lady"
63-8884 is called "Woolf Pack"

Do you know of any of the others ? If so can you publish the names please along with the serial ..... Thanks

Hi Glen - Are the MC-130s assigned to the 67th or directly to the 352nd? Likewise, the 100th vs 351st. I can't remember how they're allocated these days.

Thanks for the lists - most useful. One thing that is puzzling me . . . . what has happened to CV-22B 08-0051, which doesn't seem to have been reported for many weeks / several months? Is it still at Mildenhall, or even, was it ever at Mildenhall, or was it a mis-pole for 11-0061?

Any help very welcome,
TM74

Last I have got recorded for 08-0051 is present on 21/05/2016.

The ones that I haven't seen anything for recently are 12-0062 which (as noted above) departed to the South East on 08/01/2016 as "WORK71" together with 07-0033 as "WORK72".

08-0051 is currently sitting in a hangar, and is not very well apparently

Many thanks for the info - just some fettling (as we say in Norfolk) needed then!

12-0062 and 07-0033 were seemingly swapped over for 11-0061 which arrived as WORK 71 on 15/01/16 and another which i cannot find a serial for

Al, the other one was 08-0051.

I was under the impression that these were replacements for the two (0059/0060) that went East back on 1 February 2015. But I stand willing to be corrected.

Thanks for this Glen.
Does this imply that CV-22s -0059 & -0060 are back at the 'Hall or are they still based and still on TDY.
Many thanks,
Freeman
