Re: Alburquerque Sunport/Kirtland AFB
Couple of correction to the above list.
CH-53E CJ-07 is 161533
CH-53E HH-17 is 161263
There was a DC-9 parked on the Kirtland AFB ramp near the C-17. I assume it with the US Dept of Energy anybody have any idea on its ID?
Also there was a unmarked bare metal 737, along with the fuselage of 727 N517DA near the southern viewing area. Any ideas on that one?
Thanks

If you have seen it close enough (and perhaps have a pic) you may be able to confirm. It is likely N68AF which was used at ABQ for a while by the FAA. Here is a picture in 2004: http://www.airliners.net/photo/Federal- ... 222/693231
Street view and some other sources seem to suggest it is this one (no tail, bare metal, parts missing and black titles). However, I have not been able to exactly confirm that, hopefully you can

Re: Alburquerque Sunport/Kirtland AFB
The 737 and fuselage of 727 N517DA are parked right next to the southern view area. The 727 is marked ' FAA/AANC WFD Testbed'. The 737 is bare metal and the registration marks
have been scrubbed out partially. It looks like you are correct as I can make out '68AF' in the remnants of the paint marks. Thanks very much for the help with this.
