Boeing serial number 19382 has had quite a varied career. It was first delivered to American Airlines as a 707-323C in October 1967, registered N7567A. Upon retirement, it was acquired by the U.S. Air Force as part of a batch of former American 707s to be used as crew trainers, and became Air Force serial 81-0892. It was converted to an EC-18B range monitoring aircraft using that serial, and flew as such out of Edwards Air Force Base until 1999. After that it was converted to an E-8C, and gained the new serial 01-2005.

An F-15E Strike Eagle takes off Feb. 4, 2015, from Nellis Air Force Base, Nev., to participate in a Red Flag 15-1 training sortie over the Nevada Test and Training Range. Various units from around the Air Force, joint branches and coalition partners converge on Nellis AFB three to four times a year to take part in the exercise, which simulates large-scale live, virtual and constructive warfare. The F-15E is assigned to the 335th Fighter Squadron at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, N.C. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Joshua Kleinholz/Released)
