**Caribous mover from Western Internation Aviation to Pima Air Space Museum, Tucson, AZ**
The five C-7A previously stored at John Gasho's Western International Aviation site off South Wilmot Road, Tucson, were moved to Pima Air and Space Museum, October 1st, 2020. The remains of YC-7A 57-3081 (cn # 6) can still be seen adjacent Western's southern boundary fence. Apparently, the plan is to return two aircraft to flight, one to display standard, and to use the other two as parts donors. (Vesto Haas). The following aircrafts are (cn# 86) USAF 62-4150, (cn# 124) USAF 621-4182, (cn# 125) USAF 62-4183, (cn# 186) USAF 63-9738 and (cn# 217) USAF 63-9755.
There are photos of the move, were on the 'Pima Air and Space' facebook page.

	N800NC (c/n # 98) "Clementine" was flown from Anchorage, Alaska in October, 1999 to Guam via Sitka, Alaska, Florence, Oregon, Eugene, Oregon, Hilo, Hawaii and Tarawa in the Marshall Islands. The aircraft is now registered under the name, "Jans' Helicopter Service." (A subsidiary of Hansen Helicopters Inc., the largest tuna helicopters provider in the pacific.) We originally bought the airplane to haul helicopters in, but are now researching the small but profitable cargo market in this corner of the world. On 8/2001 it was re-registered in the Philippines under tail # RP-C2702 Thanks to Roger Anderson one of the pilots who fly her
