Support aircraft for a deployment of Boeing WB-50s (two parked in the background left), probably from the 56th Weather Reconnaissance Squadron at Guam. 49-257 was built a C-124A and converted to a C model. However it has not been fitted with wingtip combustion heaters. Photo by Ken Granger. This photo was added on 21 March 2023, and has since been viewed 452 times. |
