  • 63-8040 @ KWRI - This was actually an emergency landing; the boom operator reported the boom hoist cable had snapped and they were unable to stow the refueling boom to the fuselage. Aircraft landed safely with minimal damage and flew again not too long after. - by Steven Holzinger by Steven Holzinger @ KWRI
