KC-135 Stratotanker
Aircraft mechanic Bill Amparano removes support brackets from the wings of a preserved KC-135E Stratotanker at the Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group storage site at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz. The brackets will be shipped to Tinker Air Force Base, Okla., where they will be used to bring a broken KC-135R back to flying status. AMARG's mission has evolved beyond merely the storage and preservation of aircraft. Today the center provides customer services including aircraft regeneration which means restoring aircraft to flying status, limited depot-level maintenance, parts reclamation, historic storage and disposal functions.
