Photo Comment

Parked outside the Champaign Museum's hangar during MERFI, still in her previous outfit as an air tanker. Though on the FAA registry as N381EC, she doesn't wear it. Ex 44-35948, but was never delivered to the USAAF, instead went directly to the RFC and storage at Kingman AFB, AZ. Had some On Mark modifications fitted during her long and varied career, but these were apparently removed during the tanker conversion.
