Photo Comment

C-47 fuselage stored at the Basler Turbo Conversions facility. Identification not certain, may also be c/n 34141. This and c/n 34386 were shipped to Basler for conversion to BT-67 in Sep 2001 and Aug 2003 respectively. But when conversion started they were found to be unsuitable, due to corrosion. There were replaced by other airframes, and Basler retained the two unsuitable ones.
