| Les Kenyon , OH | I'm Looking for a KC-97G or I have also found pictures indicating that it was modified to a C-97K, Tail Number 52-2666 or as a K Model 0-22666. My grandfather bailed out of this aircraft in Sep of 1956 with his crew from the 96th ARS based in Altus AFB and TDY to Elmendorf AFB AK. Only one member of his crew was located and the rest were lost in Cooke Inlet AK. I can find no information at all as to what happened to this aircraft. Thanks Again,

| David Pickering , PA | I was stationed at Barksdale AFB LA in 1964. We received a couple of really beat up KC-97's that we stripped down (kept the boom and the hydraulics)and converted to a SAC 2nd AF semi VIP personnel and cargo carrier. I flew on one for about two years. These were, I think, the first C-97K models. They did not have the jet engines on them at this time. 03/17/2002 @ 16:41 [ref: 4523] |
