Hi,

Did you read these Turkish KC-135s? Cause `1 should have been changed (1 left Nellis to Turkey and 1 went from Turkey to Nellis).

Indeed 3 KC-10s today in, and few KC-135s out + E-3 out. WC-135 still on the ground.

Lakenheath had 2 C-17s as well.

Hi,

The ATC c/s of the RC-12 was Argus15 and of the C-12 it was Duke07.
Don't know if they had different c/s on SBS.

All turks did depart, as did the Utah KC-135 (64-14828) which came in yesterday. The third KC-10 is aparently still in.

Tonight some KC-135s will go out and refuel 2 B-1s that are enroute east. Tomorrow night they do the same, but then 2 other B-1s will go west.

Regards,
Oscar
