Most Guppies Swim, This one Flies!
While making the rounds at AirVenture 2023, Aero News’ sneakiest mice were able to get some sterling footage of the ins and outs of the old Aero Spacelines Super Guppy, the quad-engined outsidzed cargo aircraft of yore. The heavily modified Boeing 377 Stratocruiser cuts an extremely unique figure on the ramp, thanks to its immense cargo compartment, well-kept aluminum skins, and vintage T-34 Pratt & Whitney turboprops. Back in its heyday, the Super Guppy was used to transport large cargo pieces for NASA, a mission that’s seen in its old-school tail logo today.
