Air to Air tankers. Cargo or not ?

The 'C' in KC designated aircraft is for 'Transport', the 'K' was allocated for Tankers, however no stand alone Tankers were purchased so there are no 'K-' aircraft.

The purpose of categories here is to narrow down searches so the question is would a user select 'Cargo Aircraft' to find air-to-air tankers? Probably not!

So I guess the answer is no! A C-135 select 'Cargo', a KC-135 do not!

Those are mistakes. any of F-15 or F-16 on service are NOT vintage/warbird. Only those on museums are.

Hi everybody.

I have some doubts with "warbird/vintage" category.

For example.. If I make an advance search in homesite I find F-15E Strike Eagle (severals) that have the category of "warbird category" and if I repeat the search looking just for Boeing F-15 I find a lot of F-15's meaning that may of them were not uploaded as "warbird/vintage".

the same happens with General Dynamics F-16 and others.

My question is... after reading this post... a F-15 or a F-16 are warbirds?... whats the meaning of this category?.. for example... a Rockwell B1-B Lancer.. is a warbird?... because is use for war ¿is that the critery?

thanks a lot.

At the moment Helicopter+Small Prop Paul.

We are finalising the details for a 'General Aviation' category.

Aj,

thanks for that - just wish the screener who rejected my appeal knew it - rejection reason was 'helicopter only pls'

Will resubmit when i get a slot.

Yep, military AND bizjet have o be selected in such cases.

Cheerio

[AJ]

Yes please Brian.

[brianw999]

Where do we stand with a military aircraft that would otherwise, in civilian use, be regarded as a business jet ?

Obviously it should be Genre = Military but do we still need bizjet to be ticked ?
