This thread is just to make us jealous.  

Edit.  I have been on flights in C-130, KC-135, P3.  
KC-135 boom operator view while refueling is pretty amazing.

they had the tail blocked off, and the ball turret, but you could walk around once in flight, the side gunners they put lexan windows so you could not fall out. However the top turret and the nose was accessible and this one had a observation hatch that was open on top and you could stick your head out of it which I did at 220 mph. was a little awkward walking through the bomb bay, its one foot in front of the other being so narrow basically.  was $300 a flight then , now its $500-$600 depending on the price of fuel. Flew along the beach at 500 ft or so.

Bumpy and noisy, leaking oil everywhere. Made a 47 look like it didn't lose a drop of oil. CTR bird in Kabul circa '09 or '10. Unarmed.
