Both Wisconsin tankers departed last Friday
RCH441 59-1461
RCH320 59-1516
SLAY01 sounds like an A-10 from Spang.
Also SLAY02 is in the air . . .

SLAY01 arrived today January 22nd around 12:55.
Thanks, saves me a waisted journey.
Greets,

There were only 2 Wisconsin tankers at GK during the two weeks of deployment. There was a 3rd, but it replaced the one which returned on the first friday. So only two tankers left on the past friday, but they departed very late in the afternoon! Up till now, 23-jan-13 there still are no tankers at GK!
