There were actually quite a few more c-97's converted to ELINT planes out of Wiesbaden, Germany and I flew on everyone of them. 8 were converted in various configurations, one with the biggest airborne camera ever made, two belonged to the CIA, 2 had a crew of 30 or so Intel officers on board, and a few others that came and went as mofified by General Dynamics in Forth Worth, TX. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.42.236.4 (talk) 06:16, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

USAF Pararescue water parachute jump in 1965 James Bond movie, "Thunderball"
HC-97G(?) airdropped USAF Pararescue Jumpers (PJs) with parascuba gear at the end of the 1965 James Bond movie, "Thunderball"--yet Wiki article claims you couldn't airdrop from its rear?

 * The term "airdrop" relates to throwing cargo out the back not parachutists. MilborneOne (talk) 18:08, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
