Keep the information flowing if you have any. Lets not allow Airbus Military to keep hiding things like they have with the boom departures.

Rather than pursue a meaningful conversation with Zeke, I'll settle that Zeke says the boom did not depart the KC-30. I think he may be wrong, despite some sailing boats being able to fold their mast...

Zeke, on a boat the mast is fixed, the boom is not necessarily, as with some booms used in construction. The 'boom' in this case is mounted to the fuselage and pivots about a joint by movement of the...

So what did happen Zeke, you suggest you are one of 'those who know, know' perhaps? The boom departing at 'the root of the structural mast' would be........pretty much the whole boom? You must be an...

It's not rocket science to understand that a boom can fly upwards, perhaps at a rapid rate if some event caused that? A boom would need to be quite dynamic to prevent damaging the aircraft it's...

Zeke wants to pretend it's a non event, but I'm keen to see pictures when they surface. This is likely to be a major event that the crew were lucky to survive.

A330 tanker still the winner

A new competition will give EADS more time to develop an off the shelf product for the USAF. Boeing are still in a state of disarray, plagued by failure and strikes, and don't have a competitive...

If a high pressure oxygen leak started, a 100% oxygen atmosphere would start a fire with the slightest oil based contaminant or even heat from friction. A blow torch fire would result until the oxy...
