My brother's photos, while waiting for his flight from Wendover (ex) AFB,

Old Chief Lynn.... from movie conair?


The FAA has her listes as C-123K AF54-709, owned by All West Freight
Inc. out of Delta Junction AK

Seems to be missing a few important bits; and I'm not sure about the

She ~was~ the star of Con Air, doing all the flying scenes.
