Restoration crews at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force moved the Lockheed C141C Hanoi Taxi into the museum’s new fourth building on Dec. 16. The aircraft, which airlifted the first American prisoners of war out of North Vietnam in February 1973, will be displayed in the Global Reach Gallery.

This video shows the aircraft move and includes interviews.
