On static display at the 1977 RAF Lossiemouth Air Show. Serving with the USAF Air Force Reserve's 79th AEW&C Squadron stationed at Homestead AFB, Florida. The last USAF C-121 to visit the UK. Entered service in 1954 as an RC-121C, then progressively converted to EC-121D, EC-121H and finally EC-121T. Withdrawn from use in 1978 and put into storage at Davis Monthan AFB, Arizona, where it was subsequently broken up. This photo is copyright © David A.
