    • There were a few in flying condition - the number seems to be dwindling
    • Back in the 50's and 60's the Air Force used them for reconnaisance. There was a whole squadron of them at Otis Air Force Base on Cape Cod. They were RC-121's and had radar domes on the top and on the belly of the fuselage. *NM*
      • Which completely ruined the lines of this sleek design. *NM*
        • I don't know--I always thought the EC-121s were great looking. *PIC*
          • Not my cup of tea but still better than the one that got scattered in the Grand Canyon June 30, 1956
