England Air Force Base Tour ...
Boeing KB-50 Tankers Flyover

The public always turned out for air shows at England Air Force Base, and was treated to both static displays, and flyovers such as this group of KB-50 tankers in 1962 from the 622d Air Refueling Squadron.

The U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds precision aerial flight team were a frequent attendee at EAFB open houses and Air Force air shows.

The sounds of the KB-50 was reminescent of the deep roar of Strategic Air Command B-36 Peacemaker bombers flying high over Alexandria during the 1950s.
