An impressive KC-10A 82-0193 of 22ARW is turning on runway 28 at Gilze-Rijen, prior to its take-off. This picture was taken in 1992, the same year the Netherlands Air Force started its K(D)C-10 program. In '92, two DC-10-30CF's were acquired from Martinair in a buy/leaseback contract. When one of the bought aircraft was lost in the Martinair Flight 495 crash at Faro, a third aircraft was bought from Martinair. US KC-10's are planned to remain in service until 2043.
