Dan Wilson Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Bob, if you haven't heard it already, Eglin has an e model (I think, I forgot to check the air cond intakes) tail 7872 sitting over on the gun testing pad (behind the C-27) and it aint going nowhere since the winders are painted over. Not a clue what its there for. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdaley Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Dan Thanks I had heard it was there. It was a grounded EBH aircraft. What they are going to do with it I have not heard. Thanks again, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Are we talking about 63-7872? I was the assistant cc on her when she was at McGuire (66-67). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Last I heard she was at Peoria with the Illinois ANG. In fact one the guys there sent me a picture. Actually it was a poster featuring 7872. Sure hope they use her in a nice way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
