How many sorties did the Air Force fly out of Saudi Arabia for OIF?

More than either party will admit, I believe. AWACS, tankers, etc. seem to

Dont be so sure on that last one. They were finding quite inventive ways as
to what could be classified as a "support" aircraft. It will probably be
some time before it is fully declassified as to what aircraft flew from where, but
a certain country east of Iraq that begins with a J was utilized too.

Japan? Long commute.
