In the late nineties this was converted for a project to take aerial photographs of the entire USA, and received a large ventral camera fairing plus non-standard tip tanks. It flew out of Van Nuys for years, but was resprayed last year and left. Don't know if the project is continuing or not, but it still has the camera fairing and tip tanks.
