N37505 (cn 42870) A gorgeous shot of United DC-6 Mainliner Sequoia loading at gate 2 at CLE in 1955. Note the old control tower under the nose of the aircraft! This DC-6 was another aircraft used by NACA to test icing conditions while flying normal revenue trips with United Airlines. The small icing antenna is the inverted U loop on the upper part of the fuselage. Photo courtesy of the NASA Glenn Photo archives.
