Former USAF 53-8153 registered to J. D. Gifford and Associates February 1981. Not a great day in Arlington for photography, but I never saw this Boxcar again. On September 7, 1981 N8504W was landing at Dahl Creek, Alaska when the right main gear collapsed and was substantially damaged. Luckily there were no injuries, but the aircraft was hauled away, broken up and the remains burned.
