Hawkins & Powers

With the C-119 headed for Maryland, whats left now in Wyoming from the Hawkins & Powers collection?

Tue Nov 18, 2008 3:18 pm

I am curious too! :P

Not too much. I passed Greybull WY end Sept, a few C-119s were on the apron, apart from the row of stored C-97, a F-27A and a C-130A. The museum was closed for the season.

Yanks' Privateer?

Tue Nov 18, 2008 4:08 pm

I'm curious about not only the Yanks Privateer but the other 2 or 3 Privateers they had.

Tue Nov 18, 2008 4:09 pm

anyone got recent photos of the place?

Never been there. Old pictures will do for me.

Pics

A few that a friend of mine took just a couple years ago.

A-26, Loadstar and PB4Y. Evidently Clay Lacy purchased a KC97 to paint up as a 377. Not sure if they will outfit the interior as a 377 thou.

My friend Rick Pisio visited there about a year ago and posted a bunch of pictures on his website at: http://rwphotos.com/Gallery/greybull If this link doesn't work, try http://www.rwphotos.com/Aviation/aviationmain.htm

I was up there twice in the last 2 weeks

here are photos from Sept 2006

aircraft that have escaped since I updated that page:

Catalina flew out a few weeks ago
C-118 flew to Seattle and was recently delivered to AK for Everts

from memory what was left:

1 x Privateer hangared
1 x C-97 hangared and being worked on for Clay Lacy

on the ramp:
2 x C-119s owned by the scapper - he is hoping to make one of them airworthy
1 x Privateer

in the field:
1 x Privateer
1 x FH-227
normal bunch of C-130s
normal bunch of KC-97s
one KC-97 is due to be scrapped soon - it is missing its belly as that was cut out to be fitted to Clay's C-97.
less Neptunes than before - a couple have been scrapped
2 x C-82s with no wings or booms attached

MIA - the C-123 - no idea what happened that that aircraft.

I'll post another link to the currect situation when I get around to processing my images.

some aircraft have slowly escaped which is good
