Boeing 707, still flying, but it's a piece of aviation history

Yesterday visited my city (Valencia) a Boeing 707-366C from Israel Air Force 295 (air refueling tanker), an event for all the spotters in the region who came to see it.
The sound of its engines is truly spectacular, and the silhouette of the plane with all the smoke it generates is truly epic.
I do not know if it is a daring to put the video here, but it may be that a lot of lovers of historical aircraft like it and I think the B707 already is

It seems they drop into Italy for a fast turnaround , this time Valencia to brim the tanks with cheap aviation kero spirit.

We have a lot of 707 AWACS planes in the neighbourhood. It's not so much of fun when they are practising here landings and take offs all day long. 😉 There are tankers here too. One crashed a few years ago near the runway.
