767-400: sold
Boeing sold its 767-400 that was built as the USAF E10 test bed and which we kept asking (without response) if Boeing might convert to a prototype for a bid for a “KC-764” aerial tanker. Flight Global has this report.
Very interesting. The -400 makes a compelling platform, I think, and this hull seemed like a natural as a YKC-45A.
Do you think the split buy is inevitable?
Beats the s[tuff] out of us. We haven’t predicted this competition correctly yet.
