Old airplanes
Lear,
Some of ours were like #3 in your link. The "hognose" contained a 6-foot steerable dish antenna for telemetry from spacecraft and missiles. We also had some with big windows for photographing re-entry vehicles, and various others with all kinds of radomes, antennas, etc.
I flew the A-37 at Edwards, and one of them (red & white paint job) is in the museum there! Could it have been that long ago?
thanks - I was thinking of this EC135

My father flew them there in the mid 70's. Guess its not the same EC135 as the one you flew.
Where did you fly the A37? My father flew the A37 also.
