Req: KC-135 Location?

Post by Whoppa722002 » Thu Jul 09, 2020 3:41 pm

Afternoon, spending my 2nd day camping at Mildenhall (The Willows), I'm looking for 58-0113, not seen it on base as of yet. Is it still based here and if so has it gone out somewhere maybe for maintenance??.

Thanks...
Thanks for any help

It is still at Mildenhall, but in an unknown hangar. Last flew on 17 April 2020.

Thanks, plenty of drives around the back looking into hangars between now and Saturday morning, but with this rain it's looking doubtful...
Thanks for any help

As far as I’m aware it’s still an MH bird. And it should be on station, as it’s not one of the two that are on the Moron TDY at present.
Not aware that it’s away anywhere else either at this time, but it’s possible.
