Carolinas Aviation Museum Part 2

Sandiego,

Not at the moment, it was a real struggle getting it to the museum, it has only been there since last summer. Basically after the Iran fiasco it become an airbourne EC aircraft and once out of service it was due to go to the desert for the rest of its life. A senior tech NCO and preservationist wanted to save it because of its history so it is on loan to the ANG unit round the corner, they stripped it and put old duff engines on and towed it round so whilst it is still ‘on charge’ so to speak it wont be open!

Thanks for sharing. Is Republic 5 (the C-130) opened up for going inside?
