The reported that young scholars from the Maine Summer Transportation Institute at the University of Maine visited airmen from the 101st Air Refueling Wing at the Maine Air National Guard base. 鈥淚t鈥檚 great because it鈥檚 an awareness opportunity for the students who may not know about the Maine Air National Guard and what the Airmen of the 101st do here. It鈥檚 my understanding that these tankers not only can conduct mid-air refueling, but also act as cargo transport, and that鈥檚 pretty cool. The fact of the matter is, these kids haven鈥檛 seen this craft up close like this, and I know they鈥檙e just in awe,鈥 said Phil Dunn, professor of construction engineering technology.
