This slide was taken when Chanute AFB was still active, the a/c being used as a ground instructional airframe. After the base closed in the early 1990s it was transferred to the Octave Chanute Museum on the former base. When the museum closed in 2015 this a/c did not find a home and was scrapped.

The story of this Stratofreighters differs slightly from the others that Balair source for the Biafran airlift. As can be seen from the faded Joint Church Aid titles under the ICRC titles, she originally served with the churches' airlift before being made available for the ICRC. It is unclear whether she flew for them as she only carried those titles as short period during the winter of 1970.
