Default Airbus Selected for Flight Refuelling contract

EADS have apparently beaten the Boeing/BAESystems bid to supply
a new generation of tankers for the RAF in a deal worth £13 billion

The EADS proposal will utilise new and used Airbus 330-200
aircraft, Boeing/BAE were offering a solution based on the
767-300ER
