Photo Comment

'Reach 84' at the Australian International Airshow. This aircraft was ordered for the USAF in 1958 as a KC-135A-BN Stratotanker. Currently with the 507th ARW at Tinker AFB. In the background is 'Reach 483', C-5B Galaxy 87-0028. One thinks of the KC-135/B707 as a large aircraft, but alongside the mighty Galaxy it looks like a light aircraft!
