Said to have made its last flight in December 1997, this beauty has been preserved here since at least 2001. She received a new coat of paint in 2003 and both the FMS and Taiwanese serials were reapplied at roughly the same location as they were during ROCAF service. Landing gear is still functional and the staff is able to turn the engines as well. This photo is copyright © Erik Sleutelberg, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
