| M Findling CMS USAF Ret , FL | Our organization, USAF-CAP Liaison Office was assigned C-45H 52-10541 and retained the aircraft until 1960 when it was phased out of the USAF inventory and donated to the Rhode Island Wing Civil Air Patrol. The aircraft was in mint condition with updated UHF communications and navigation capability. No further data is available, would appreciate any input relative to 52-10541. 12/05/2006 @ 09:54 [ref: 14916] |
