Strange and Special Purpose Aircraft

Postby Greg B on Fri Sep 11, 2009 4:37 am

More for the aviation buffs among us :)

The quality of the photos not as high as the last couple we have seen, but certainly
good enough. An amazing collection from the tiny to the enormous.

Enjoy.

I would struggle to name many..if any.

But a lot of those seem to be AEW and EW aircraft (modified Nimrods...modified Comet airliners....) as well as the Guppy transports, I did recognise the Boeing 747 LCH DreamLifter, as well as the Airbus Beluga.
