Ex-USAF 44-77083, ex- RAF KN699. After serving for the Dutch Air Force, the aircraft went back to the USAF as 44-77083 before becoming FAC-965 for the Colombian Air Force. In 1981, it became FAP-2030 for the Paraguayan Air Force. Written off on November 24, 1994 near Puerto la Victoria. In 2010 it was reported stored/derelict in Guazu. Judging by the bystanders, some sort of official visit just took place. This photo was added on 1 March 2020, and has since been viewed 260 times. |
