I'm not certain if 79-0477 is still with the Montana AG now.
The only info I have on the burned remains of 79-0478 is that it was supposedly being returned to the States but I don't know for sure if it ever was brought back.

Doug, I appreciate the link. It clarifies the reason 79-0478 was written off (from a semantics viewpoint, "damaged beyond repair' is different from "destroyed" although they both mean its flying days were finished). More than that; tho, the info provided in your link also pinpoints what actually happened at Baghdad. TYVM for posting the link, Doug. (Wave)
