[Andy Marden]

On Google Earth, a C-123 is visible at N43.92543, W85.28153.
It is visible on imagery from Aug05 until the last May13 shots.
Does anyone have any idea which one it is please?
Thanks,

Andy,
you've seriously got me wondering now whether you actually scan Google Earth inch by inch trying to find more USMOOS or WMOOS! (:-))

Found the answer more quickly than I thought: http://c123sinsea.org/Guestbook---Comments.php:
"Hi,

My name is Teri Cramlet, I work at SpringHill Camps in Evart, MI. We have a c-123k that we have remodeled into a cabin for campers. we are in the process of redoing the inside and found some old numbers that had been covered by metal. I was wondering if you by chance had any information on our plane or could direct me to someone that does. our serial number is 54-692, construction number is 20141 and I have a contract number that is AF33-600-26306.

Thank you for your time and help:)

Have a great day

According to the Warbird Registry, 54-0692 was last seen preserved at Chanute AFB. Congratulations, you have just brought a 'survivor' back from the Dark Side!
And I am now sending an e-mail to Teri Cramlet, as I have just found something to do in the days after Oshkosh!

Thanks and best wishes,
Roger

Sure enough, if you google the camp she sits south of the main building in camo paint.

Better than the scrapyard, I guess:

No kidding.
The plane is in camouflage, hidden in a forest, nowhere near an airport.
