Thanks for all your comments. I have ordered the 50-230 mm lens now.
New Fugifilm X-A3 mirrorless with 16-50 lens and extreme cropping.
I do not shoot raw as I don't want to do all the processing. Another thought on processing is that the person doing it is altering it in a way that he thinks is right. This is not always right. Two people can see things differently.

Your camera batteries are not AA. Most cameras use a unique to the camera battery supplying a different voltage and current for each model.
My bad. I was thinking of the KC130 in my last reply. However, how many KC135's are still around? They have been mostly replaced by the old 3 engine variety.
Another problem with your faulted theory. The KC135 is a turbo prop aircraft and does not fly at those altitudes because it is not pressurized. It does its refueling at much lower altitudes. Also I see from your avatar you are posing with a "six shooter". Are you one of those nuts that insist you can carry anywhere, anytime regardless of regulations. What have you got to be afraid of, the Feds coming after you? My grandfather was a deputy sheriff in Karnes County, Texas and he did not carry all the time. So, I say to you, GET A LIFE!!
Out here in Arizona, we have a politician, who is a MD that believes this same trash. If you only had a little basic knowledge of chemistry, you could comprehend. Just how do you add coal fly ash, a solid, to a liquid, jet fuel, without destroying the engines?
Must have been a dumb redneck to do something so stupid.
As usual, your shots have good composition and content, but I would like to see more realisim.
Have you tried a Honeycrisp or Ambosia. These are excellent.
