Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
09-6210 was on the ground at Mildenhall a couple of days ago. It may be on loan still.
Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
It left westbound on 31st October 2013, and is at St John's with 11-5733.Tronk 11 wrote:09-6210 was on the ground at Mildenhall a couple of days ago. It may be on loan still.
Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
I was there on the 30th Oct, so was lucky to see it & get a photo before it went back. Thanks for the info.
Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation

Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
I have 63-7979 replaced by 58-0034 sometime in Feb. So to answer your question no.

Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
Looking at the list of KC135's the odd-man-out is a solitary KC135T.
Curious to know the difference I looked it up in Wikipedia, which shows that KC135R's are re-engine KC135A's or E's, whereas the KC135T is a re-engine KC135Q; the version of the tanker specially adapted to take the JP7 fuel unique to the SR71 Blackbird.
But maybe you knew that. I do too now!

Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
Does anyone know what happened to KC135 10306, did a tour around it a while ago?
If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!
Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
Arrived at the "old folks home" on 6th June 2013.

Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
Hi all,
As I understood it, the KC-135T model is air-refuellable (i.e. it can take on fuel from other tankers), whilst the rest of the fleet isn't. Not sure if that's correct, but would welcome any thoughts either way!
thanks
Stuart

Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
Stuart, only KC-135R(RT)s can take on fuel, of which there is only eight, all with the 22nd ARW.

Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
Ah, I knew there was a "T" in there somewhere! In which case I'm still none the wiser? What's special about McConnell that they need that capability?
Re: Mildenhall Based Aircraft Current Situation
They could drag special ops aircraft a very long way using just those tankers, without having to stop off en route
