Kyrgyzstan officials have decided that the Air Force KC-135 aircrew was at fault when a Kyrgyz Tu-154 airliner grazed the wing of the refueling aircraft in late September. The Russian News & Information Agency reports that the Kyrgyz government is seeking monetary damages from the US. There is no word yet from the Air Force about the results of a “joint” investigation.
