Boeing C-22B

--- Using the net to track down mercenary fighters in Iraq Kathryn
Cramer has been posting a lot of really good, solid investigative
material about the ongoign use of mercenrary fighters in Iraq, googling
the tail-numbers of aircraft and generally net-researching the hell out
of the shadowy world of soldiers-for-hire in a US-led battlefield.

This is what Internet investigative journalism is all about:

Another question for the next White House Press conference: Did flight
N4610 depart the U.S. from Hope Air Force Base in North Carolina?

ONE MINOR FUSSY POINT: If you've been following my attempts to track
down all the Boeing C-22Bs, you know that I have had a little bit of a
hard time tracking down exactly how many there were. I thought I'd cut
it down to four, but this photo of a C-22B, on the web site of the U. S.
Air Force, clearly shows a plane with a number just beyond the sequence
I was researching: the 34618 indicates a serial number 83-4618
associated with an original tail number N4618. Interesting.

If it did, you have a real conspiracy story to break! Imagine, a whole Air
Force base hidden away in North Carolina with no previous indication of its
existance. Ms. Kramer needs to stick to reporting the moon phase, etc.
