> >Do you know if the MD KC10's have been satisfactory? The KC-10s have done very well and until more of the C-17s came online were the air mobility aircraft of choice for many strategic airlift/refueling missions. >The only way you could get more of them would be used or from Boeing! Not as easy as it sounds, Gerry. Much work would have to be done to convert a DC-10-30 to a KC-10 aircraft meeting Air Mobility Command standards. If the B-767 isn't purchased as a KC-135 replacement, then a converted C-17 (KC-17) is the next best choice. But it is more expensive to procure than the KC-767. > > _________________________________________________________________ There are now three new levels of MSN Hotmail Extra Storage!
