After being away for quite a long time,I will strongly advise the
people here [b]not to take photos of Airliners/Miltary
Fighters/Aircraft landing at Air Bases.My friend almost got himself
into trouble when he was shooting the Eurofighter Typhoon when it
arrived at Singapore.So if you don't wanna get into trouble,best
way is not to take photo of them unless they are on public
display.Even at next year PLAB open house only Lenses up to 105mm
are allowed.
No F-16s are based at PLAB although Tengah F-16s go there
sometimes.Besides,you have a very good chance that it is a USAF
F-16.
Talking about the KC-135 again,it is bascially like the KC-130,just
that it has a boom,which is the "stick" at the rear of the plane as
shown in Demag_ac pix.(Thik straight hor
)It has 2 kinds of boom,enabling it to refuel almost any kind of
fighter jets.If you note,you will see something at the end of the
wing of the KC-135 that looks like a very small engine.It is not an
engine.It is actually a shuttlecock shaped drogue that is used to
refuel fighters with refueling probes.(F-5,A4s)The KC-130 was
deemed unsuitable as a refueling tanker as it was too slow for the
F-16s.(Plus I don't think that the boom can be fixed on the
KC-130)But the KC-130 can be fitted with the drogues anytime to be
converted into a refueling tanker.[/b]
Aiyoh, last time when I was there, end up they dun check the
lenses..
Last time PLAB had F-16 was in 1993 on Sqn 140 
Because of F-16, that's why KC-135 was brought
