Cleveland Tank Show C/KC-97?

Sun Aug 06, 2017 11:26 am

About a month or so ago I posted a photo of the wing of what was quickly identified as a C/KC-97 headed north on I-71 in Columbus, Ohio, on a trailer on the WIX Facebook group. Later, I saw photos of what appeared to be the same aircraft on display at the IX Center in Cleveland during the Cleveland Tank Show there. I recall someone posted a possible ID on the first thread, but I didn't write it down anywhere for reference. Yesterday, I was talking to a guy at a Fly-In in Washington Court House, and was told that said C/KC-97 will be turned into a bar in the Cleveland area, possibly in/at the IX Center itself. Has anyone heard about this, and does anyone who was at the Tank Show have an ID for this airframe?
