The P-38L was registered to Pacific Aerial Survey from 1965 to 1969.

Photos 19 and 23
Both were taken at the Paris/Le Bourget airshow in (June?) 1967. The first shows part of the Swedish contingent, namely Sk60C 5/42 and J35F Draken 1/61. The broad grey/green tail behind the Draken is that of C160F V1/'WY', while in the far background behind the Sk60C can be seen the Dayglo tail of Italian AF G91T1 MM6325/SA-25 and, next to it, that of F-104G MM6563/53-20. The second photo shows P-3B 153416 of VP-11; can't confirm the identities of the L100 and Guppy.

Thank you for the help. :clap:

I think the Guppy might be "Super Guppy N940NS (previously N1038V), serial number 52-2693". Within the left hand side of picture 23 you can sell the first few digits of the registration and that digts only match up with the Super.
