This baby has a problem with its own fuel jettison system. This aircraft was converted as an inflight refueling tanker. At the end of its wing tips are the refueling pods which extends out in flight to transfer fuel. Not many of these aircrafts are used as pax transport. Most are converted to freighters.Some pax and cargo versions had wing lets mod to improve its flying range. Its no longer economical to operate these aircrafts.Its a gas hog as they say
