A KC-135 Stratotanker aircrew assigned to the 92nd Air Refueling Wing and crew chiefs assigned to the 92nd Maintenance Group, perform a preflight inspection of the boom at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington, Oct. 17, 2024. Mechanical and electrical systems checks are conducted before every flight to ensure the safety of crew members, passengers and other aircraft receiving fuel. For decades, the KC-135 has been the backbone of Air Mobility Command’s air refueling capabilities around the world because of its ability to extend global reach and project U.S. air power.
