Aero Spacelines

Aero Spacelines, Inc. was an American aircraft manufacturer active from 1960 to 1968, that converted Boeing 377 Stratocruiser and C-97 aircraft into the Guppy line of airplanes, re-engineered to transport oversized cargo such as space exploration vehicles. These inspired later aircraft of similar concept, such as the Conroy Skymonster, Myasishchev VM-T, Airbus Beluga and Boeing Dreamlifter.
