A small metal panel from the left wing of a 100th Air Refueling Wing KC-135 was discovered to be missing when the aircraft landed on Wednesday night after it had safely completed a routine refueling mission. The missing section measures 1 ft by 3 ft and there are no specific hazards associated with it. The aircraft was traveling in the RAF Mildenhall circuit pattern and the missing panel is most likely to be found within an area to the south of the Base or aligned with the runway.
The 100th Air Refueling Wing would be grateful if any member of the public who finds the panel could contact the 100th ARW Public Affairs office on 01638-542654 or the local authorities. Direct any questions to the 100th ARW Public Affairs office at 01638-542654.
