J McFarland, e-mail, 20.08.2015 04:03 I was stationed at Tinker from 1984-2001. I was fuel systems. Crawled through many a tank during those times. Still live in the area and love watching them fly over my house.

BobS, e-mail, 04.04.2015 02:56 I was a radar operator on the E-3a in the early 80's, spent a few years at Tinker AFB Flying the line. Then I got stationed at Boeing for my last few years as part of the Air Force Test Team. We tested each aircraft before it went to Tinker. After the last US plane was delivered my job got deleted. Best job I ever had, nothing they could put me on could top that so I got out after nine years. I live in Oregon where the spruce goose now lives and they have or had a really good IMAX movie on it. FYI

James T. Emerich, e-mail, 23.12.2014 15:53 I was stationed at Tinker AFB and worked for the 552nd AWACS squadron from Nov 1977 to July 1981 as a jet engine mechanic, in shop and flight line. One of the best jobs I ever had… Brand new Aircraft and brand new TF33-100 engines.

Leroy McVay, e-mail, 16.10.2013 19:34 I'll get my story straight yet! Very first one used ultra vilot light, i.e. heat waves, to locate target. Big security on a/c as we worked on it. Mechanic bought a magazine with EVERYTHING YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE A/C & HOW IT WORKED! Took magazine to Air Force inspection office. He tossed it across the desk and said, "So much for security!"

E3flyer, 17.12.2011 03:51 the E-3A is the NATO version while the B/C variants are the ones at Tinker and the D/F are the Brits and French. The Saudis have a few as well as the Japanese have the 767 versions..All E-3's are were built to be E-3's on the 707 production line...Unlike the JSTARS plane E-8C which are refurbished/retrofitted airliners. Just got done with my career of flying on these planes.

Leroy McVay, e-mail, 18.03.2011 02:38 Modify my comments a little. One we worked on had a 'green house,' not the antenna as shown in picture.

Leroy McVay, e-mail, 18.03.2011 02:37 Worked on original re-work of KC135 to AWACS. Engineering drawing were for current production a/c. Air Force gave us line number 13 to re-work. Nothing matched! Had a resident liasion engineer. Several time he told us to figure it out and he'd draw a picture later; this was ll non-structural. First work order was to cut a 5' (?) hole in top of the plane. We were right on.

Lee Patterson, 27.10.2010 00:01 Was in the 552nd when Boeing delivered the first one. All of the aircraft in the original fleet were 707 airframes.

Kenneth W. Bennett, e-mail, 22.03.2010 23:33 Message for Chris. The E-3A's B's and C's were based on a B707-320 airframe. I performed Comm maintenance on them at Tinker AFB, OK in 1980-81. Though looking at new pictures they might have moved to a new airframe. FYI . . Japan AWACS is a modified 767.

Chris, e-mail, 11.03.2010 04:13 I heard that the E-3A is based on the 707 but conflicting sources tell me otherwise. Does anyone know for real? Please leave a comment directed at me. Thanx
