RC-135W Rivet Joint jets have all sorts of fairings for antennas and sensors in their mission as Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) gathering platforms. Hence the fairings along the side, the extended nose, etc.

Love at first flight

I guess "D-FML" would have been too short for a German tailspin.

Even with the point reduction for tricycle and turbines, there's just something very sexy about a trijet, especially this one <3 :

I'm surprised no one posted it, but I can't find it either. There was a seaplane being advertised a few years back with a beautiful model in a swimsuit in the water with it. Anyone remember that?

They also used to have a pic of a couple getting off or on the plane with SCUBA gear...guess they pulled that one.

Yes, yes I do. I haven't been able to find it, but I found these:

Don't think it was the Icon. The picture isn't in their gallery, although they could have pulled it.

 

[ProudPilot]

Yeah, close but I can't find it either. I know there was an old thread on here about it, but searched with google and No Joy. Oh well, best rich guy advertising I had seen made public.

Always one of my favs.

Judging by the nose fins it's a B1A right?

Great plane BTW.

 

[BeRich]

I'm pretty sure it's a 1B, but could be wrong.

Droolz. A life goal of mine is to fly one someday

[MikeD]

I'm pretty sure it's a 1B, .

you are correct.

Does that thing even have a mission now?

It's conventional only now, by START treaty. They've been using it as an on-call CAS bird overseas, though I don't know if they're still over there or not.

Does converting tax dollars to smoke and noise count?

Out of all the former military pilots I've flown with, I'e only flown with one former "BONE" pilot.

BTW, the last "ring knocker" I flew with last year, NEVER... LET... ME... GO.... MORE.... THAN.... FIVE.... MINUTES... without reminding me.

I had one like that. Then I showed him a ring from a real military school and he shut right up!

Very misleading thread title, Waco!

I was expecting a couple of planes in tight formation. Maybe a "Fly United" photo..........
