Photo Comment

This aircraft arrived at MASDC on 26 October 1976 and in August 1986 was officially transferred to USAF inventory with new PCN CG106. In this image the USN PCN 8C012 is still worn just above the nosegear bay. The aircraft was registered N810CS in 1990 and ferried to Fairbanks AK by Everts Air Fuel in May 1999. Its cut-down fuselage and wing centre-section remained in the Everts "boneyard", still in faded US Navy colours as of 2022.
