Default Re: Allied Bombers

I have seen the XC-99 a number of times in the 70's and 80's. It was parked out in a field between Kelly and Lackland AFB. There used to be a number of surplus types parked there but I don't know what became of them. They were just parked in the field and left. They had a T-38, a C-45, an F-100 and several F-105's and a Huey, all in poor condition but intact.

The XC-99 had fire in the cockpit section set by homeless people in the past and had sat there decades.
