Photo Comment

Served within USAF until 1978. Became N49548 and was delivered in October 1984 to Paris-le Bourget for conversion by UTA to Guppy 201 but conversion was not undertaken and the aircraft was loaned to Musee de l'Air. Finally given to a local air museum in Nancy, France. Unfortunately scrapped when the museum went bankrupt in 2004. Only tail is preserved at Zruc airpark in Czech Republic.
