Default Boeing Wins KC-X Tanker Bid
http://www.boeing.com/Features/2011/..._02_24_11.html

I'm seriously gobsmacked. Everything was pointing to an EADS KC45 (A330) win yet Boeing has pulled it out of the bag.

Can't say I'm disappointed though. To me, the EADS offer smacked of unfair government support so I'm stoked at the result.

Also, the KC46A (767) looks great with those huge winglets!
