Photo Comment

This aircraft was damaged beyond economical repair during an April 2020 tornado. C-54D N9015Q was acquired as a replacement aircraft and parts from N500EJ, including props and a horizontal stabilizer were used for the restoration of N9015Q, which has now been re-registered N500EJ. The interior is being transferred from this aircraft to N9015Q, which will be painted in a color scheme very similar to N500EJ.
