A most unique aircraft - the McDonnelll MD 200/199

[red750]

I happened to come across a link to a blog which covered this aircraft. I have not created a profile for Unique Aircraft, because I have very little information about it and extensive searching of the net, using Google, duckduckgo search engines, and looking at a number of websites, including airliners.net, wikipedia and airport.data failed to locate any reference.

 

Here is a link to the blog page: 

         https://lumenosity.blogspot.com/2013/01/worlds-most-unique-aircraft-md-200199.html

 

The only photos I could find are from that blog, and are reproduced below.

Maybe I jumped a little quickly. Grabbing the N number from the above top photo, I checked the FAA registry, where it is listed as MD 220. There are a few more photos, but I will have to search for more details. It does not look like there is a Wikipedia entry for it.

It looks like something made for a movie set.   Nev

Well, after quite a bit of digging, I turned up sufficient info to create a profile,

The first article I found got the model numbers mixed up

Thanks Peter.

All this research and digging you do, keeps one older gent busy, and many more others intrigued.
