Honeywell Boeing 720 air-to-air shoot from Sabreliner

[slh950]

why do the inner engines have such a bulbous nacelle/pylons? and why does Honeywell fly old planes?

@slh950

those were air compressor intakes. Compressors were driven by those engines and supplied pressure to pressirize the plane.

This plane was scrapped in PHX a while back.
