This folder contains a repaint for The Boeing KC-97 by Manfred Jahn and team. It shows Boeing C-97G Stratofreighter 52-2718 c/n 16749 N117GA. Originally built as a KC-97G, it was operated by the USAF until 1977. It was converted to a C-97 and flew with an unknown group until it was seized by US Marshals in 1888. It was then auctioned off to Grace Air of Texas, named "The Spirit of Corpus Christi" , who operated it on salmon runs in Alaska and humanitary missions to Africa until 1996, when it was bought by the Berlin Airlift Historical Foundation. It is currently being restored to airworthiness, and is painted as the 'Angel of Deliverance'.
