	52-2604 / N97GX (cn 16635) A view of the newly assembled KC-97G at the IX Center. I stood on the side rails of a pick-up truck on Perimeter Road and shot over the fence to get this shot. It’s nice to see the Ohio Air Guard markings on her. This airframe has an extensive history.

	52-2604 / N97GX (cn 16635) The first sighting of the Boeing KC-97G after reassembly in the IX Center. The KC-97 arrived last June and has been under restoration since. Crews pushed it out to the parking lot just before I arrived at Hopkins. What a classic!
