A Quick Reference Guide to Categories

[ErwinS]

Is there any category needed to be ticked for an image of a Boeing 737-500? The aircraft is already almost 30 years old. Please tell me if there's anything needed to be ticked thanks!

No category needed

Does "Air Drake", the 767 outfitted with vip cabin for the Rapper and his entourage, count as a Special Scheme? (N767CJ)

No, what would be the normal scheme?

• Aircraft: Boeing KC-767J

Should I choose the Cargo category for the above aircraft?

Thank you for your reply.
I was wondering about the following post.
I don't think the Self-Defense Forces are performing tanker operations.

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!
