Not to worry about the paint scheme. trump will be long gone by the time the new planes are painted. They will stay with the traditional blue and white.

That's very cool! Wonder if that's the first time any plane from Hawaiian visited LEX

I believe that is a DC10-40. Not many of them built.

Just watched this beauty do 8 practice runs at GJT today. I live on the flight path. I didn't know exactly what she was and a quick search didn't help. Just now I check my email and there it is! Great info. Thanks all.

JC, I understand the purpose/mission of the A-3 as a fleet logistics,VIP transport. ADM Zumwalt was the first CNO to convert a Skywarrior for his personal use. Mainly because the A3 has a tailhook,and he could drop in on fleet carriers unannounced. My confusion was because the photo description did not say whether it was a vintage photo of a military A3, or a photo of a vintage aircraft being used by civilians, current day.By the way, I served with VAK-208 for 3 years. I don't care to remember how many of those drogue chutes I re-packed. Thanks for your comments shipmate.

it to visit the various Naval installations. I worked on the tanker version of the A3 while I was in the Navy.. Check a3skywarrior.com for more info on the A3.
Back in the '90s I got to work the TACAMO project when they were upgrading a lot of the subsystems for the E6B. The hardest part was getting all the added clearances and I already had a TS/SCI. Some interesting stories regarding the trailing wire antenna.

Slush deflector. Without it, nose wheel will send slush into engines.
King Air 350, too many windows for a 300.
