Being based at Travis on the mighty '10, I'll fill you all in: Learjet it was, filmed earlier this year. It was the first cloudy day we had had in a month, which ruined many of the planned shots. Also, someone notes the number of KC-10s on the ramp. Well the KC-10 aircraft they filmed was flown all the way across the country from McGuire to be in the sequence. We couldn't support the tasking at the base underneath the event! Someone's budget has way too much spare cash!

You are right ICM the mothball fleet has dimished greatly but you can still see what's left at .34.

Presumably the 'Travis personnel strengthen allied ties' item in the August 2012 ARSAG newsletter is about you, 6foottanker?

Can the Spams really not understand 'Flight Looootenant' and have to call you 'Captain'?

Are you enjoying flying the 'Extender' more than the 'Javelin' (sic)?

Come on Beags, please use plain English on the forum and keep your special language for p.m's.
