NASA’s new WB-57F, N927NA, flies for the first time in 41 years

Posted by Paul Filmer on Aug 10, 2013

NASA currently operates a pair of WB-57F high-altitude research aircraft based out of Ellington Field in Texas, but very soon a third airframe will join the fleet. Paul Filmer reports on NASA 927′s first flight.

I wonder what the record is for the length of time an aircraft was stored and then put back in government service.
