Yesterday I went to McGuire for a farewell ceremony for the KC-10 Extender, interviewing two pilots and a boom operator. One of those pilots is at the controls right now of the final KC-10 flight out of McGuire, headed for the boneyard in AZ. This aircraft's nickname: Armadillo Express 
I'll be posting a KC-10 story on my Aerospace Perceptions site in a few days - the main story on the site right now is the Thunderbirds flight for Home Town Hero at Wallops. Take a look if you've got time

252.100 "Casino Royale REACH 79er2 arriving 20 mins out" - sounds like airshow stuff
He came out of MacDil Air Force Base
Assuming this is who @billythec heard, without location we have no idea for sure.
Yes I agree, It's the only one I see on the map.

Sorry, location Middletown NJ, 3mi from ocean. (Monmouth Cty). "right under the tail of the plane icon"
Thank you, slightly different than original report, helps ID plane better. But doubt it is air show related being a K35R tanker and appears to be landing at Westover Air Reserve Base in Mass.

USCG RADM says the ROV that found the submersible required two C17s to bring in and worked fine.
USAF has nice article too.. I still have not seen any article about that PUDGY-58 KC-46 27 hour US flight a while back.Yesterday I went to McGuire for a farewell ceremony for the KC-10 Extender, interviewing two pilots and a boom operator.

Good article! Tiffany Irby, quoted in that story, is the boom operator I spent time with. They were all great people with thoughtful comments - I'm looking forward to transcribing the interviews and getting my own article done
And I, too, am interested in that KC-46 flight!
