I worked for McDonnell Douglas Canada in the late sixties to early seventies and I went to St Louis and saw the Phantom assembly line from the Mezzanine, very impressive and as I recall some where in RAF markings.
We were there to discuss the shipping fixtures to carry the DC 10 wings to Long Beach. Initially by air in the Super Guppy but eventually they went in modified rail cars. The air shipping fixtures were used as storage only and never did get off the ground.
