ID help on aircraft at Little Rock AFB Air Park

Thu Jul 07, 2022 1:02 pm

Working on the profile for the Little Rock AFB air park and need help on the identity of a couple of the aircraft.
    B-47 Stratojet/52-0595
    B-57 Canberra/??-?????
    B-58 Hustler/55-0668
    C-47 Skytrain/??-????? <--- the ID on the scheme is not the actual ID
    C-119 Flying Boxcar/53-8084
    C-123 Provider/55-4567
    C-130 Hercules/61-2362
    C-130 Hercules/??-?????
    F-101 Voodoo/56-0231
    H-21 Shawnee/52-8706
    UH-1 Iroquois/70-2460

The C-130 that I'm missing the ID on is actually the gate guard in camo scheme.

Anybody have the ID's on the 3 mystery aircraft.
