This is not the original "15" White of SKOGA, which was used by Chairman Mao. SKOGA was a joint Soviet-Chinese airline, the acronym of Sovyetsko-Kitaiskoye Obshchestvo Grazhdanskoi Aviatsii (Soviet-Chinese Civil Aviation Company). The titles have been removed from this museum piece.

First noted here in May 1998.

Former West German Air Force 2457. To Turkey as 8205 in 1984. Preserved at the Turkish Air Force Museum from 1998.

This is the first aircraft that one encounters after entering the wonderful museum at Datangshan. SKOGA (Soviet-Chinese Civil Aviation Company) was set up by the Soviet and Chinese governments in 1950 operating services from Beijing, eventually being superseded by CAAC in 1955. Note the cyrillic titles under the starboard wing, the port wing has Chinese characters.
