Slide taken when Chanute AFB was still active. This a/c was last used by the PMTC. It was retired to MASDC, then flown to Chanute in 1983. After the base closed it became part of the Octave Chanute Air Museum collection. When the museum closed in 2015 it was transferred to the Yankee Air Museum in Michigan, where it is undergoing restoration.
