Long after having visited this location, did I learn that this specific C-119 had been a navigation trainer with two (extra) astrodomes in the rear fuselage. The openings in the ceiling to the domes where sextants could be used by trainees can be seen here. The standard astrodome is logically located just behind the flight deck. The lack of respect for this airplane's interior is rather obvious. This photo is copyright © Erik Sleutelberg, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
