Plane Type: Boeing KC135R & Rockwell B1B

A Boeing KC-135R Stratotanker rendezvous with a Rockwell B-1B strategic bomber as they pick their way through a weather system. The advent of the KC-135 jet tanker in the 1950's ushered in the golden age for air refueling, providing virtually unlimited range and endurance to United States bombers, fighters, airlifters and other aircraft equipped with refueling receptacles.
