Pease AFB closed in the 90's, it's now an ANG base, they have KC-46s stationed there?

Drones are operated from Creech AFB.

Pease is regularly used as a stop off point for fuel etc prior to going transatlantic. It may not have received its cargo at Pease.

If there is any heads up on an ETD it would be appreciated - noting it presumably won't be any later than 12:30 going off the NOTAM

His track shows - McChord>Peterson>Pease>Waddo back to the 20th Sept.

Peterson is a Space Force base.

thats sorted that then Mike as i only traced to were it came from prior to landing at a waddo not prior to landing at Pease, it would originate from McChord as its a McChord bird as we all know.
