Hello:

Request//R4D Que Sera Sera with jato mod and empty jato drop (bomb)

 

 

"Que Sera Sera" (What will be will be) made History by becoming the first aircraft to land on the South Pole on October 31st 1956. The extended Nose and extra Antenna were used for Radar. The Jato (jet assisted-take off) bottles under the fuselage were used for taking off in deeper snow.

 

Thanks for looking

My post is a request to have the R4D (C-117) "Que Sera Sera" have a JATO mode.

As do I. Sitting in a C120 with the rear door half open on take off out of Ft Ord Ca. back in 1978. I was a young Infantry Buck Sgt. Coolest thing I ever did! Looking straight down to the ground no parachute either!
