  Remarks  
La foto está tomada a cierta distancia, y de ahí su calidad deficiente, pero creo que vale la pena aunque sea para apreciar la silueta de este singular avión. Se trata de una versión militar del Lockheed L-1049 Super Constellation que llevaba un radar de vigilancia de alerta temprana; del EC-121N "Willy Victor" se construyeron 8 ejemplares, y eran destinados a misiones de reconocimiento meteorológico para la medición de datos y el estudio de los ciclones del Atlántico Norte y del Noreste del Océano Pacífico. A ello se dedicaban los "Hurricane Hunters" (VW-4) de la US Navy, escuadrón al que pertenece este avión.
