Tactical Tanker
The MRTT also holds eight 463L pallets in the forward and aft lower cargo hold. The KC-46 holds 10 centerline and 18 side-by-side (before that FCIF restricting side-by-side cargo loading due to another Boeing design fuck up). Every KC-46 can do AE missions, unknown about the MRTT because countries either configure them for full cargo hauling with the “cookie sheet” pallets civilian cargo uses or full passenger A330 config. The MRTT also isn’t cleared to refuel conformal fuel tank (CFT) F-16 two-seaters due to the lack of clearance due to the massive size of the boom (STS) compared to the KC-46. Then you have the strategic mission that the KC-135s do, the KC-10s didn’t, and the KC-46s sorta due. Unknown how the MRTT would do that mission. If Boeing fixed the RVS with RVS 2.0, stopped the APUs from prematurely failing, fixed the cargo loading system/cargo floor, the KC-46 wouldn’t be that bad.

The Next President is...
Don't quite understand how you came to that conclusion out of reposting that video. I don't know where you've lived, but in the multiple blue and red states I've lived in, currently living in a red state, I've had to show my ID to register to vote. In fact, I registered to vote at the same time I obtained a driver's license in the current state I'm in. So, would you agree that if the SAVES Act passes, and the GOP loses big in the midterms, then Trump should accept that defeat and not claim that the midterms are rigged with voting fraud?

They’re already buying them.- Greenland

The difference is that you're a citizen of the government that is trying to use eminent domain to take your private property. This is akin to Australia wanting to buy your house; you said no, so they put pressure on your neighbors to coerce you to sell your house to the Aussies.- Greenland
If someone asks to buy your house and you tell them it’s not for sale, that’s the end of the conversation.- College Football

- F-22 Maintainer killed AIB
I remember seeing that when I was in OGV. The best part was the CVR recording the idiots in the cockpit making fun of the kid at the firebottle for not having being able to see due to no one having a flashlight.- F-22 Maintainer killed AIB
Except the AIB points out the dude in the cockpit couldn't have seen the guy by the CRL on the right side of the jet. However, they could've activated the CRL via their laptop, which was under the jet on the ground, on the wrong TO checklist (APU start) to the maintenance they were doing. Since their laptop could actuate the CRL, there was literally no reason why the guy was in the cockpit doing it via the MFD.- F-22 Maintainer killed AIB
Incredibly sad and entirely preventable. Someone needs to be charged with manslaughter.- TSgt John Chapman MoH saga
Threatening to sue someone, especially for slander/libel, is free and incredibly easy. Actually filing a lawsuit for slander/libel and winning is immensely expensive and difficult to do. - The Next President is...
