Photo Comment

Ex-USAF 56-0540. When photographed it was in the process of being converted in to fire-fighting Tanker 82 by Hemet Valley Flying Service but tragically it was to be lost, and the 3 crew killed, on 13 August 1994 near Pearlblossom, CA., when the right wing failed following a fuel tank explosion.
