bobdaley Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Just got a report from Andy Marden on the Ecuadorean AF Ecuador got 4 ex USAF B models. None of them are flying. Three were left behind at the old Quito airport. One went to the new airport and is parked looking derelict. FAE 894 ex USAF 57-0525 Lock 3501 moved to the new airport. FAE 897 ex USAF 61-2645 Lock 3683 is in the AF Museum at the old Quito airport. Andy found that at least most of us had misidentified 895 and 896. They are both on the ramp at old Quito. One clearly identified as 895 was unable to be identified. All along we thought it was ex USAF 57-0529 Lock 3505. But 895 was sitting next to 57-0529, still identifiable from its old USAF paint scheme. Therefore, 895 must be ex USAF 58-0733 Lock 3528 and 57-0529 Lock 3505 must be 896. I'll try to attach some pics Bob The pictures did not line up the way I wanted but The first one is 896 The second one is at new Quito The H and L100 in the front are operational and the B in the back looking sad is 894 Third is 897 in the Museum at old Quito Fourth is a shot of the ex USAF serial 57-0529 on 896. Fifth is 895 at old Quito Bob Edited October 23, 2014 by bobdaley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
