Delivered to the USAF as C-130B 58-0712 in 1959. Converted to a C-130C then to NC-130B. Assigned to NASA Ames Research Center, NAS Moffett Field from 1961. Used for boundary layer control, STOL and V/STOL research. Used boundary-layer control over the flaps, drooped ailerons, elevator, and rudder to augment lift. Registered as N929NA in 1969 then N707NA in 1973. Stored at Davis-Monthan AFB in 2000. In ARM scrapyard nearby in 2021.

In the early 1970s Lockheed's L-300 demonstrator was converted into NASA's Kuiper Airborne Observatory, and fitted with a 36-inch infrared telescope between the cockpit and wing. A cover retracted when in use. It was able to get above most of the atmospheric water vapour that affected terrestrial optical telescopes. Ex Lockheed demonstrator N4141A, N714NA retired in 1995 and has been preserved at Moffett Field. It was replaced by a Boeing 747SP.
