N176RA routes through Shannon

RC-7B N176RA registered to the US Government, routed through Shannon this afternoon on a fuel stop en route Keflavik - Ramstein. The aircraft, msn 76 was originally delivered to Ransome Airlines in 1982 before passing on to Pan Am Express and eventually to the US Army. Pictures of the aircraft in it's current guise are rare with very few taken in the past 4 years. It would appear that the overall white scheme is recent as pictures from 2003 - 2005 show it in a red and white scheme. Pictured above CROOK49 prepares to land on R24.
