The 154th Wing, stationed at the former Hickam AFB, is a composite unit combining airlift, refueling and air defense.  The Hawaii Air National Guard has been operating KC-135’s here since 1993.  I was able to attend this year’s Wings Over the Pacific airshow and see the various aircraft types in person.  Stratotankers have been in service since 1957.  Nikon D300 w/18-200mm, processing with Photomatix Pro and Aperture.
