Well, the aircraft may no longer be in service, but those maintenance stands sure are! B-1 and B-2(Cobra) stands!

Nice pics!

I'm looking forward to seeing the XC-99 in one piece someday. I've seen about 90% of it in the NMUSAF restoration hangars and on the ramp outside. The fuselage sections look like a row of Quonset huts.

Every time I see a picture of the XC-99 it just says MONSTER.
:shock: :shock:
Are there any web sites with pictures of the XC-99 cargo interior?
I have been in parts of a B36 and wonder what the XC-99 inside looks like.
thanks,
John

I put a few semi-interior shots on here a couple of years back.

Here's one that got left out of that group. That's my wife, two years prior to our marriage, looking down the elevator.
