Arrived at AMARC 12 January 1987 and sold on the civilian market in 2004, becoming N131SF. It was then sold in Canada as C-GYSK and was converted to CV580 configuration as a fire-bomber for the Province of Saskatchewan. It remains active in this role as Tanker 474 as of time of upload in August 2024. This photo is copyright © Fergal Goodman, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
