This aircraft is former USAAF C-47B 43-30726. It went to Turkey to serve with the Turkish Air Force Academy (Hava Harp Okulu) at Istanbul/Yeşilköy (hence the code YŞL). The aircraft is now preserved there, still in these markings. This photo was added on 19 November 2020, and has since been viewed 811 times. |
