Post Boeing STRATOCRUISER Flying Once Again

The big Boeing 377/C-97G STRAT is once again back in the skies after a long wakeup call. Owned & operated by the Berlin Airlift Historical Foundation from Toms River NJ. This non profit tax exempt,all volunteer membership corporation is dedicated in preserving in flying condition as a COLD WAR MUSEUM EXIBIT this great Boeing Proptransport from the past. Only 2 of these STRATS survive in the WORLD today that are still AIRWORTHY!! HER new name is "Angel Of Deliverance" & now sits on ramp at Millville Airport NJ after HER ferryflight EAST from Aberdeen SD. The big STRAT looks fantastic in HER new paint scheme. Only 100 more miles to go to reach HER new home at the hangar in the NYC area. At the hangar the work will begin on HER interior with displays,showcases & memorabilia of the COLD WAR yrs history & how this great proptransport was the forerunner of SAC & Cargo & Tanker fleet we have today.Help & support is always welcomed in our project to preserve this fine Classic Proptransport.
