Photo Comment

This is former USAF 58-0723 (last noted with the 731st Airlift Squadron) and delivered to Greece 356 MTM in September 1992. It was overhauled with Hellenic Aerospace Industries (HAI) at Tanagra in July 1995. After a short operational life the Herc was reported as stored at Tanagra in March 1998. Then it was reported with L3 Communications/Spar Aerospace Limited at Edmonton IAP (Alberta, Canada) in April 2006 for an aviation suite upgrade. It started to fly again with 356 MTM from September 2006 up to November 2013. Since then the Bravo was reported as withdrawn from use with HAI at Tanagra.
