I know some of you aviation buffs out there would like to see the first Stratotanker ever used by the US air force in person. So I listed some of the locations around the country where you can spot the KC-135 in all its glory.

If you’re on the west coast, you should definitely check out the Castle Air Museum located in Atwater, California. It features a variety of airplanes from KC-135′s of course to the famous Convair RB-36H’s that were used in WW2. It also features a pristine CF-100 Canuck Mk V, the first straight-winged aircraft to break the sound barrier.

Midwesterners can always visit the Offutt Air Force base in near Omaha. This is the base where the infamous B-29′s that dropped the atom bomb on Nagasaki where built. This is also where a lot of aircrafts that were used in the second world war, such as the B-29 Superfortresses and B-26 Marauders where assembled.

If you live near Texas, you can spot the KC-135 at the Dyess Air Force Base in Abylene, Taylor County. For those of you residing on the east coast, you will soon be able to catch a glimpse of the KC-135 at the Dover Air Force Base in Dover, Maryland.

So if you like aircrafts and would like to see the mythical KC-135 up close and personal, make sure you drop by one of these locations and be prepared to be amazed by this awesome piece of machinery.
