Every aspect of force projection is enhanced with an effective aerial refueling capability. However, with most military aerial refueling tankers only flying approximately 300-400 hours per year, hourly operating costs are very high. By leasing commercial aerial refueling services, Global Airtanker Service can reduce a significant portion of the large investment involved in acquiring new military aircraft, flight crews and maintenance personnel. Global Airtanker Service possesses a track record of commercial refueling success. With nearly a decade of commercial aerial refueling development experience, Omega Air developed the FAA’s first certified civil tanker aircraft the Omega KC-707 tanker. The company holds an STC for refueling equipment installation and associated structural modifications. Omega, with its present commercial tanker offerings, has: • Refueled over 8000 military fighter aircraft • Performed over 750 missions • Flown over 3000 hours • Offloaded over 28,000,000 lbs (4,000,000 gallons) Turkey commercial aerial refueling services can be dedicated to support routine training missions, scheduled deployments, exercises and contingency operations.
