This VC-140B was being used by Vice President Hubert Humphrey for a speaking engagement in Baton Rouge, LA. I was allowed close access to the a/c to take photos, something that would not happen now. Sorry for the slide quality, but I only had my Kodak Instamatic camera with me on this day. This photo is copyright © Bob Thomas, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
