Citat:KC-10A #79-1951 has been a workhorse for the Air Force and has been a test aircraft for over 40 years. It has been a privilege for many Air Force personnel to work with the reserve units and fly on the only KC-10A test bird. The working relationship between the 70th ARS and 418th FLTS has been crucial for flight tests and certification for all receiver pairings.

Citat:With the last two remaining McDonnell Douglas KC-10A tanker/transport aircraft with the 60th Air Mobility Wing and associated 349th Air Mobility Wing at Travis AFB (CA), the Extender is now in the twilight of its career.
The remaining duo, 79-1948 and 86-0031, are now flying the last sorties from Travis before retirement which is expected during September. With the Extender gradually being phased out, there were only a handful remaining at Travis at the beginning of July.
