	With the scheduled 2006 retirement of the last 8 C-141s, the "Hanoi Taxi" embarked on a series of flights, giving veterans, some of whom flew out of captivity in this aircraft, the opportunity to experience one more flight before its retirement. At 9:30 AM on Saturday, 6 May 2006, the "Hanoi Taxi" touched down for the last time and was received in a formal retirement ceremony at the National Museum of the United States Air Force, located at Wright Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB) Area B in Riverside, Ohio near Dayton, Ohio. Area B is the "Wright Field" portion of the base with runways that are no longer in operational service except for inbound flights to the museum. "Hanoi Taxi" is now part of the permanent static display collection of the Museum.
