A small note here, Airbus has never built a tanker. Except for the Luftwaffe tankers it is currently building (IIRC first flight was a couple of months ago), and the Canadian conversions to transport/tanker that are on order. There is a difference between "building" and "built". Read the links I quoted yesterday, everything is written there. 10+27 "August Euler" is finished and in testing phase, it will be delivered next month. Are the LW planes boom or probe/basket ?? Both, the "hose and drogue" on the wingtips, the boom option in the center body has been cancelled on the LW birds - but is still an option. Perhaps the Canadian version ("Polaris") will have it? The system has been delivered by Flight Refueling Ltd. (Cobham). Al Minyard Gruss, Roman
