Hi all,
Ive only just found out about this, the 319th ARW is leaving? Grand Forks AFB, with the base taking up an unmanned role, apparently from BRAC2005! Anyone know what the plans are for the re-deployment of the tanker assets displaced from the 319th? I would guess just to bolster other units, but are any new squadrons due to stand up with KC135R/T ?
TIA Ray

Hi Ray,
Just had a quick squiz on google and found this link. It looks like some are going to Aircraft Heaven but there are some distributions if I am reading this right.

Hope that helps.

Excellent, thanks indeed for that! Most of these changes have already taken place, so presume that the remaing a/c will simply be distributed between the other mentioned units! Its the KC135E that are/have been phased out, KC135R/T are safe for now!
