After seven years of restoration, carried out by technicians from the Yanks Air Museum, a Lockheed EC-121T Warning Star (military version of the Super Constellation) has been put in flight from Camarillo to Chino, California (USA), where the museum is known for being the Mecca of warbirds in the United States. This aircraft had Top-Secret capabilities and monitored the skies for hostile aircraft for over 44 years during the height of the Cold War often flying missions 24 hours a day. It served over the Pacific as well as Taiwan, South Korea and Iceland during the Cuban Missile Crisis. You need only to take a look inside to see the massive electronic and technological capabilities of this aircraft.
