Photo Comment

This Albatross served with the USAF as 52-0135 and the USCG as 2135 before being retired to MASDC in December 1969. After being declared as excess it was sold to a Forida company (presumably for spares) in 1989 and allocated the civil registration N7025Y. It now languishes in the Western International on the edge of AMARG.
