Second use of registration N5216R on a C-119. Note that this aircraft carries a data plate close to the aft door which claims that it is a C-119C with serial no. 11071, acceptance date in 1953 but exact date unreadable. However, this Tanker 136 is aprobably the former N3935 c/n 10824, which was painted as N5216R in the early 1990s. At the same time the first N5216R (ex RCAF 22131, c/n 10956) was donated to the Battle Mountain Air Museum at Battle Mountain, NV for display as Tanker 137.
