With the benefit of hindsight and familiarity with the ultra-modern, high-tech props available today, doesn't that old three blader look terribly inefficient? This aircraft served previously with the 310th AS/24th WG based at Howard AFB in Panama City. She was retired to AMARG during July 97 and is stored with the PCN/Inventory No. AXCC0001. (N2286Y)

This C-27 was delivered to the USAF and served with 310th AS/24th WG at Howard AFB in Panama before being retired to AMARG in Jan. 1999 and stored as AACC0005. She escaped the boneyard and flew with the State Department in Florida before a second retirement to AMARG during March 2013.
