The C-97 was the military transport version of the Boeing Stratocruiser. Between 1943 and 1950, 74 Stratofreighters were ordered; the first flight occurred on Nov. 15 1944. A tanker version (KC-97) was introduced in 1950 using the "flying boom" refueling system and all subsequent USAF contracts for C-97s were for tankers. On June 7, 1973, the aircraft on display was christened "Zeppelinheim" by the mayor of that German town honoring its use by the 160th Air Refueling Group (Ohio ANG) during Operation "Creek Party," the aerial refueling of NATO forces in Europe. It was flown to the Museum in August 1976.
