It is worth noting, as mentioned in post in another thread, all but one of these airframes were listed for sale in 2021. The sole new addition is N9234C/14143. (However, in the last listing, N8056D was previously incorrectly identified as N80560 and N4846N as N125HP.)

Its mostly junk. The 97s that are being auctioned are junk. We own two that are not on the list.

What is happening with the museum aircraft?
Is the museum still there?

[Thomas_Mac]

The news article linked above mentions the museum remains as so but they aren't interested in any of the auction aircraft as they would be duplicates to the existing collection.

A friend sent me photos of a museum Neptune which was never converted for firefighting. A nice, stock example.

I bet the folks at Plane Tags are stocking up on Sawzall blades...
