Photo Comment

There is some confusion about the identity of this aircraft, with some sources quoting it as c/n 88-15778. But that seems impossible because that airframe was still in existence as F-BJBH at the CFA Métiers de l'Aérien at Toussus-le-Noble in France by 2011, while D-FAML made its first post-restoration flight in Dec 2006.
The other quoted identity, c/n 88-17026, seems much more likely. This is ex USAAF 42-85245 and US Navy 43854, sold as N6600C in 1963. To Hubert Mohr in Apr 1979 and flown in the USA as N77LT in German markings, coded 77-LT. In 1994 it was photographed at Baden-Baden in Germany as N77LT and it reportedly suffered an accident later. It was stored in Germany until sold to its current owners and restored in 2006.
