I spent the day in Dover, Delaware today to do some work for my dad and also to hit up the AMC Museum at Dover AFB. Off and on rain and a constant overcast made it challenging against mostly-grey aircraft. Did my best though.

I also stopped at PHL on the way home.

There were four K9 Falcon 20's on the ramp. The one on the left arrived just as I did. Hopefully they weren't tasked of taking a group of fallen soldiers to their final resting places. :(

Nice stuff. I wish I was able to stop into Dover when I lived in DC. No car at the time made that hard though. The C-121 came out very clean. I like it.

nice shots. didn't know that KDOV has a museum, might have to extend my trip to MD and take a drive over there. sadly though, i have a feeling that the Falcon 20 did leave DOV with a serviceman onboard...

Yes sir. It's a great collection, and they even have a C-141 sim! Can't beat it for the price (free!).

And unfortunately, that Falcon 20 (227CK) did take a soldier home to Elgin.
