Found this as well, based Fairchild Washington. But a full USAF unit instead of an ANG unit.
I understood USAF was way more expensive as the ANG, when hiring of tanker capacitiy is concerned.
(ANG doesn't charge the flights from and to the US, while the USAF does).
So I'm surpised these guys turn up...…..
Nevertheless: a good reason fpr a spotting hit-and-run next Sunday :)

Are you sure they are from 92nd ARW? Scramble KC-135 database is not really up to date.

Both aircraft are still 92nd ARW. However, they are probably being crewed by 141st ARW/Washington ANG members.

The 141st is an associate unit (no aircraft of its own) and therefore borrows aircraft from 92nd ARW as necessary.

Cheers,

Bob
