Remarks: During my-probably once in a very long time-visit to Airline History Museum, I had the amazing good fortune for the Super Connie to be taken out of the hangar and all four engines run up! Here you see the first one spinning.

Remarks: N1550 was later sold to Allegheny and damaged beyond economical repair when it overran the runway on landing at Rochester, NY (KROC), on July 9, 1978.
