Modified for Operation Looking Glass mission, during the Cold War, EC-135 were airborne 24 hours a day to serve as flying command platforms for the military in the event of nuclear war.

I made a quick stop at the Grissom Air Museum on the way home. It's closed for the season and I had to shoot over the fence to get this B-25. Lots of neat planes here and I'll have to get up there someday when the museum is open.
