Although C-133A Cargomaster belonging to Cargomaster Corporation is often cited as stored in many publications and by staff at Anchorage IAP, but the aircraft is still very much alive, albeit hidden well.

N199AB does fly extremely infrequently as it is restricted to flying within Alaska and only on government contracts, and I’m sure that when this does happen it becomes quite the showstopper - its last flight was in 2006 as far as I can tell.

C-47A N777YA is looking great on skis and is operated by Bush Air Cargo on freight hauling duties and still sports a racy Woods Air Service color-scheme from the days when she operated out of Palmer.

One SC7 Skyvan that we did see was parked up at Lake Hood and is operated by North Star Air Cargo.

Even prop fire trainers end up being superseded by jets - in this case Lockheed L-188AF Electra (N281F), still in a basic Zantop scheme, has been moved to a remote part of the airfield at Anchorage apparently having served its purpose.

There is also a one of a kind Grumman G-21G Turbo Goose designed and used by the US Fish and Wildlife Service for marine wildlife surveys.
