Actually this is in ISO Docks and we were just starting on pulling up all the floor panels for the dreaded belly inspection and cleaning. I hated pulling floor panels a gazillion screws, at least half always required some type of special attention to get out.

Be glad it wasn't on the Caribous that the AF inherited from the Army in early 67 in Vietnam!!!!!!!!

Jim is right. I busted my arse working on them C-97 and C-124.

For me old world aircraft best was B-26 invader worst was C-124 globe master. For me new world aircraft was T-38 talon worst was F-106B pig.

Best- P-51 (six months on Montana ANG planes left at George when MANG was returned Guard status in 1953)followed by the SIX- ours arrived Loring with only time from Palmdale to Loring- Brand New!!! The worst- C-47 had 300 hours fling time as a flying crew chief- pay was about 13.00 a month,(1953-54)
