Talk:Boeing 367-80
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] I'm not convinced=
The article says
- "Prior to building the Dash 80, Boeing officials tried to convince airlines and the Air Force this would be an aircraft that would be useful and economical. These potential customers were unconvinced"
That contradicts what I've read. USAF was looking for a jet tanker to service its new fighters, having recognized the KC-97 was too slow, as early as 1949; the C-102 was advanced as a potential solution.... Trekphiler 15:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
