Plain Pegasus !
Curaçao welcomed its second KC-46A Pegasus visit this past weekend.
Using the callsign “REACH 796”, US Air Force KC-46A serial 21-46091 departed Balboa Panama Pacifico International Airport (MPPA), arriving in Curacao 90 minutes later. The Boeing refuelling jet remained parked at the Cooperative Security Location (CSL) through the weekend, departing for Barranquilla, Colombia (SKBQ) just before lunch on August 4th.
Unlike the first KC-46A to visit our island, this Pegasus carried no serial numbers, Wing/Squadron identifiers, or the traditional “U.S. AIR FORCE” titles on the forward fuselage. This is a result of Air Mobility Command’s 2023 decision to remove such markings in order to enhance Operational Security (OPSEC).
