There is a "static" display Goonie Bird here at Fredericksburg International Airport. It hasn't moved in decades and isn't near as pretty as the one above.
In 1956 I was a passenger from Chicago to Bloomington Il in a DC-3, the civilian version of the C-47. In 1967 the wing commander at Clinton-Sherman AFB let me and another guy in our shop ride a C-47 from our base to Amarillo and back to borrow the compass calibration kit (ours was broken) to swing the compass on one of our B-52s that was going to SAC Bomb Comp the next week.
