Photo Comment

Preserved at the Rescue Heritage Hall as 43-15732 since at least 1989. The real 43-15732 was shot down in Viet Nam in 1962. The Rescue Heritage Hall closed in 2002, and this C-47 was transferred to the Kirtland Air Force Base Historical Collection. It was still on display at Kirtland by 2023.
