Back in 1990 53-0044/N3153F was preserved outside the airport at Las Vegas - painted a pale blue color.
Got a picture somewhere- will try to find it.
In the 60s...C-124s were regulars along the South coast ORTAC/IBSLEY/MIDHRST or LND - IBSLEY ,e/rte to Mildenhall ..often 5 or 6 a day... at night you could here them coming several minutes before they went overhead.
(BTW the IBSLEY VOR no longer there ...but was at approx 50 52 30N/01 46 53W just to the east of Ibsley Airfield)
