My Favorites after 2021
484

489
When 497 was running it was right up there near the top of my favorites. Which is why when we did a photo charter in 1997 it was 497 and 484. Sounds good regarding an operational K-37.
FWIW I get the feeling there are some who were not that happy with the conversion of the 489, which may explain why no further conversions are planned.
Read into that what you will.
