The KC-10 has proven
to be an indispensable tool for the US Air Force, sustaining and
increasing the endurance of both pilot and plane, allowing global
reach and force multiplication to any mission.
In "The Extenders,"
by artist Dru Blair, several KC-10’s are depicted lining up
for take off as the crews prepare to launch yet another vital
support mission. The fog shrouded runway creates an aura of intrigue
and mystique, and is consistent with the quiet reputation of this
essential, but often overlooked aircraft as it carries out its
critical task. The KC-10 is known for its awesome power, and it is
rumored that were it not for the effects of drag, and the necessity
of an atmosphere for the air-breathing engines, the KC-10 is
powerful enough to achieve orbit.
"The Extenders" is carefully reproduced on Museum quality Archival
Stock, each print is individually signed, numbered and inspected by
the artist for color consistency and accuracy and is limited to 950
signed and numbered lithographs. |
