That is the only flying Super Guppy. There were only five ever built. There are two versions of the Super Guppy, the SG and the SGT. The first one built was an SG (Super Guppy) and really was the only one of its kind. After the first one was built, they made lots of changes and built what was called the SGT (Super Guppy Turbine) of which there were four of that type built. Together they are all referred to as Super Guppys.
Of the last four built, the one posing with my bike is number four, the last Super Guppy and the last in the family of Guppy’s ever built.
The Super Guppy was also kind enough to pose with an MG Midget that I previously owned:
The plane itself is a cargo hauler. As can be seen in the first photo, the whole nose hinges and opens like a giant barn door to the left to allow cargo to be loaded. It’s a sight to see.
There’s a whole bunch of info about it and the whole Guppy family at this website; www.allaboutguppys.com
I've got lots more pictures of it but they’re on my Mac. I have some showing the cargo being loaded too.[IMG]http://www.visitedstatesmap.com/image/ALAZARCACODEFLGAHIIDILIAKSKYLAMEMAMSMONENVNHNJNMNYOKORPARISCSDTNTXUTWAWIsm.jpg[/IMG][B][SIZE=3][COLOR=#4c5165][B][COLOR=#cc0000][FONT=Georgia]

Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

Forgot to add, nope, definitely not the Vomit Comet.
The Vomit Comet was a KC-135A and later a DC-9 was used for that purpose.
Just a little info to share, again on my Mac I have pictures of the Vomit Comet, even some with my bike. The Vomit Comet that is now a gate guard at Ellington Field is the KC-135 that they used to film all of the weightless scenes for the movie Apollo 13.[IMG]http://www.visitedstatesmap.com/image/ALAZARCACODEFLGAHIIDILIAKSKYLAMEMAMSMONENVNHNJNMNYOKORPARISCSDTNTXUTWAWIsm.jpg[/IMG][B][SIZE=3][COLOR=#4c5165][B][COLOR=#cc0000][FONT=Georgia]

Kinda like that song from Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffet, It's Friday somewhere.
That's how I feel today. The holiday sure messed with me this week. Not to mention I've been on Covid time for two months where every day's the same.[SIZE=10px]Roger

My wife helps me pick what picture to post, and which one of you to vote for.
Here's my not submission: (click picture to view larger)
and, without moving the bike, we go back almost seventy years for my actual aviation submission:
This information I stole from somebody else's website:
Originally posted by Duncan's Sabre WebsiteThis jet, 51-6078, an F-86D-30 was delivered to the USAF on September 17, 1953 and was assigned to 83rd FIS at Paine AFB in Washington. On August 11, 1954 it was sent to McClellan AFB and converted to an F-86D-31. Its next assignment was to the 31st FIS at Larson AFB in Washington on November 28, 1954. Then reassigned again to the 322nd FIS on August 18, 1955. On September 6, 1955 the jet was again returned to McClellan AFB and converted into an F-86L. On August 7, 1957 the aircraft was assigned to 3550th Combat Crew Training Wing at Moody AFB in Georgia. When retired it flew to Wright Patterson AFB on November 1, 1960 and was donated to the town of Milton, West Virginia on December 28, 1960 for display at a roadside memorial park.[FONT=arial]"I have come to believe that all life is precious." -- Eastman, TWD6.4

Hey, Rog, thanks for being willing to do the summary for us all.
I have shown wife the summary of pictures before, thinking she might be interested, or at least share some involvement. She said "any pictures other than motorcycles?"[IMG2=JSON]{"data-align":"none","data-size":"full","src":"http:\/\/webpages.charter.net\/ddvrnr\/GS850_1100_Emblems.jpg"}[/IMG2]
