The first from EADS, RR, Cobham and Thales involves
the use of Airbus 330-200 airframes while the other
from BAE Sysytems,Boeing and Serco involves the
use of Boeing 767-300ER airframes.


The EADS A330-200 sounds reasonable since the current tanker version
is competing for the UK's FSTA program. EADS could also provide an
A310 VIP conversion through EFW if an order were placed...


Or, we could buy the same tanker that the USAF is purchasing, and save
ourselves a lot of trouble.
