At the time the world's last surviving civilian Strat, this one was delivered to Northwest as 'Stratocruiser Chicago' on July 10, 1949. Stored by Aero Spacelines, but they did not use it in their Guppy conversion programme. Seen here still in basic NW colours, not long before being broken up - such a shame

Perhaps favourite of my C-97 shots, this was one of the highlights of the first Greenham show. Fortunately now preserved at Volk Field in Wisconsin - appropriate as she flew with the 128th ARW, Wi ANG, out of Milwaukee

Nothing fancy here. The USAF serial was brutally painted over and the rudder clamped. Still, part of '0-30265' is readable which stands for 53-265 and this is one of no less than seven Stratotankers at Greybull in July 2005. C-119G N3003/03 is in the background. [Velvia 50, DiMage Scan]

If it wasn't for the shrubs and the two propellers on loan we could be looking at an operational Stratotanker here. Former 53-0208 survived Dross Metals and was sitting in the plain, enjoying the Bighorn Mountain view. Would she be reminiscing the days of droning through the air with a trail of thirsty fighters?

Former USAF 53-3816, the last 367 built. In storage since the late 1980s, though she has only lost her tail in the last couple of years (it's laid down on the right stabilizer). After retirement from the USAF, this airplane was used for a short time for flying bread for the Bimbo Bakery up on the Mexican Baja Peninsula. She used to make regular maintenance visits to Tucson during this time period.
