bobdaley Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) On Google Earth today, new very clear pics of Greybull from September. If I can make this work I'll post 2 links. One is the fuselage of 58-0740, trucked from Homestead, I know not why? The second is the 5 surviving H&P A's From the left 57-0513, the next 2 are 57-0459 and 57-0511 Don't know which is which, then 56-0507 and last 56-0535. Pics are in the Gallery Bob Couldn't figure out how to post the links, here are the coordinates. The B is at 44 30 32.54N 108 04 45.15W The A's 44 30 58.88N 108 05 06.41W Edited November 29, 2011 by bobdaley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC10FE Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Thanks a lot, Bob. I've now been wandering the world for the past 90 minutes. Google Earth is very addictive! I gotta get a life. Don R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamMcGowan Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I visited Greybull a few years ago and took several pictures. At one time I had a web page but accidentally deleted it while trying to use Front Page. I don't think I have any of the scanned photos on any disks, but I do have the slides. One of these days I'll rescan them and post them. Hawkins and Powers has an interesting collection of airplanes. When I was there in 1999-2000 they still had several Herks. They also have a C-119 with a jet engine on top that was used in the remake of Flight of the Phoenix - they airbrushed the jet engine out. They also had at least one C-97.

Sam, Just picking a nit here and I may be mistaken, but I think the airplane in the movie was a C-82 Packet with the jet pack removed. I haven't seen the movie in a very long time, but the major difference between the C-119 and the C-82 is that the C-119's cockpit was moved forward so it doesn't have the big nose like the C-82.
