    The aircraft pictured is a Douglas C-133A-DL Cargomaster. The side opening "petal" doors (the doors with the yellow bands) were installed to facilitate the loading of ICBMs such as the Atlas shown. This aircraft was withdrawn from service in July of 1971, then scrapped in 1974.

    Interesting fact is that due to a hurricane Atlas 80D was taken down for safe keeping and then sent back to LC-12 in September 1960.
