Thanks for that Cec....my mistake...you're right...12000US Gal...that's not the only error I made the correct registration for the DC10 to which the CASA Instrument relates is N17085 (typo on my part their earlier...) .Oh the shame....

Still though, it does make me wonder where they're going to operate from because that refill / turnaround rate is still a big call in anyone's terms given the size of that aircraft.....

I just checked the Sydney Airport Message Board Forum (type in the Rego..) the DC10 is here...

Its route here was So California Logistics (KVCV) - Kona Itl (PHKO) - Pago Pago (NSTU) then avalon. From its logs on all its stops it travelled at FL280.

"10 Tanker Air Carrier" DC-10 - Sydney Airport Message Board

Apparently it's using Bomber 911 or similar callsign and was last seen in the sky down in Victoria (probably out of Avalon..) on the 18th December...anyone seen it yet?????
