"Extraditor".

Then they can use it to fly innocent people to their deaths in concentration camps without a refuel in Prestwick.

It doesn't start with an 'E', but since it can do boom and drogue refuelling on the same sortie, how about 'Ladyboy'?

Could sell it to Branson and allow it to become Virgin Tanker.

Then again after a FJ puts its probe in it I guess it wouldn't be!

I guess by that rationale VC10's should be renamed easytanker!

I'm leaving now!!!

I also claim dibs on the 'KC-45 Consolidator' - but I'm willing to let the license.
