Since 1995 the KC-10 had been based at Travis Air Force Base North Carolina and on September 26, 2024, they held a farewell ceremony for the Air Force’s last KC-10 Extender, a refueling tanker that served for 44 years. The final KC-10, tail number 79-1948, took its last flight to the Davis-Monthan Boneyard in Arizona.
79-1948, fleet number 91948, was delivered to the United States Air Force in July 1982
Known for its immense fuel capacity and comfort, the KC-10 supported numerous missions around the world, including Operation El Dorado Canyon in 1986, the longest fighter combat mission in history.
The aircraft was nicknamed “Gucci 10” and “Big Sexy,” and became a symbol of excellence at the 9th Air Refueling Squadron, where “Gucci” became a motto of pride. Though retiring, the KC-10’s legacy continues with the newer KC-46 Pegasus.
