I have a copy of a letter sent from Headquarters, 91st Strategic Reconnaisance Wing, Lockbourne AFB to General Curtis Le May at SAC, Offutt AFB dated 10 October 1951 which details the training that the nine RAF aircrew received at Lockbourne and the total training flying hours the three crews completed (167Hrs).
It also showed the total fuel used on this operation (Ju Jitsu) including 65,805 gallons transferred by the six KB-29P Tankers. The Tankers were so unreliable, they had to send up two for every RB-45C in case one had to return with faults.
The only mention of a serial number was when they were initially flying the four RB-45C aircraft from Lockbourne to Sculthorpe (three operational & one spare). "RB-45C number 8042, piloted by Major Charles S. Graham, completed the two flights of the mission (Lockbourne to Goose Bay then to Sculthorpe) in 8Hrs 56Min, is believed to be an unofficial record for a flight of that nature".
