In faded US Navy colours (ex Bu131892), but with all military markings and serials painted out. This Albatross was based at Carson City since at least 1998, but hadn't flown in years.

Stored here in very faded USAF markings (ex 51-067) since about 1991. Remnants of serial "0-10067" and of the registration still visible on the tail and fuselage.

Obviously suffered a mishap in the #2 engine...

While in service with the USAF, this Albatross was loaned to Pan Am in 1969. It operated a weekly service as PA163 from Mombasa, Kenya to a satellite tracking station at Mahe, Seychelles, on a joint contract with the Philco Radio Corp. and the US government. It flew in bare metal as "0-17163", with a Pan Am logo on the nose. It was withdrawn from use on 3 Nov 1971, and stored at Long Beach, CA. It became N70725 in Sep 1977, and in 1987 it was restored to flying condition and flown to the Castle Air Museum, where it was restored in the markings seen here. The Albatross was first noted on display as such in Nov 1988.

Procured by USAF as SA-16B 52-129 but transferred to USCG on delivery as 2129.

The significance of the '049' on the nosewheel door (this side only) is unclear.

Ex USAF 51-5303, which explains part of the registration.

This aircraft has been at Wasilla Airport for many years. Don't know if it's flown regularly or just stored.
