Photo Comment

Used by the Bravo 369 Flight Foundation (together with N12BA c/n 10035) for the 2015 reenactment of the historic Alaska to Siberia (ALSIB) route, through which thousands of lend-lease aircraft were delivered to the Soviet Union between 1941 and 1945. Departed Great Falls, MT 21 July 2015 and flown to Vnukovo, Moscow for the MAKS 2015 Expo, with many intermediate stops. Arrived there 8 August 2015 and has stayed in Russia ever since. Was allocated new registration RA-05738 in March 2017, but this was cancelled again circa June 2018 and may not have been used.
