View of the Supper Guppy's cargo hold looking forward through to the cockpit. There are least two features worth pointing out. Firstly, the red demarcation line revealing where the hinged nose section will open and, secondly, through the open access hatch on the right one can see the original Stratocruiser nose section around which the huge, bulbous, cargo fuselage has been attached.

The port side of this fascinating aircraft does look a bit tatty, however, it shouldn't be too long before she is in pristine condition again as the starboard side is being repainted.

Initially used for testing, "Clipper America" was delivered to PAA on 12 June 1949, and soon renamed "Clipper Bald Eagle". This airline publicity shot shows a typical crew of eight in front of passengers and freight. Chevron's fuel tankers also get in on the act. The aircraft served the airline until sale in 1960. From PAA 60 years ago.

At the time the world's last surviving civilian Strat, this one was delivered to Northwest as 'Stratocruiser Chicago' on July 10, 1949. Stored by Aero Spacelines, but they did not use it in their Guppy conversion programme. Seen here still in basic NW colours, not long before being broken up - such a shame

What a stroke of luck! During a visit to the AMC Museum, NASA's Super Guppy made a fuel stop at Dover AFB. She was returning to Houston after delivering an Osprey to Philadelphia.
