P2V-7 otherly said SP/2H was rather a fine maritime
patrol and anti-sub warfare machine with elegant shapes
and proportions which made they were loved by their crew
though not roomy at all inside compared with the
cumbersome and boat-like Atlantic. When taxying, the
mourning of brakes was heard far from the aircraft and
looked like the one of Constellation, this other
beautiful product of Lockheed. Note the importance of
engine nacelle relatively to the slim fuselage section
abstraction made of ventrally fixed antenna area of theAN/APS-20E
radar. They are Neptunes deprived from this antenna which
are pure beauties in the role of water-bombers.
