Photo Comment

This C-131B arrived in the Everts storage yard in early 2002, still in its full USAF colours but with the serials painted out (ex 53-7811). It was previously part of the Kelly Field Heritage Museum, which was disbanded in Oct 2001 following the closure of Kelly AFB. Most aircraft were transferred to the History and Traditions Museum at the adjoining Lackland AFB, but some were sold. It is unclear when the Miss Piggy art was applied.
