Thank God for miracles, KC.
We have an ANG refueling air wing here in Pittsburgh and I see those 'ancient' 707's flying most every day and always thought with all the fuel on board that I don't want to be around if one of them has a problem.
Great news that the crew survived. Great news.
It's time for a new tanker in the fleet. Screw the politics. Pick one and get'r done. The 707 has done its job. It is time to retire them.

Right on. It's almost a no-brainer to pick a current airframe and get on with it. I can't see why it's so expensive, and never did understand why not more KC-10's.
