Lockheed XC-35 (s/n 36-353) in flight. (U.S. Air Force photo)
In the summer of 1936, the Air Corps contracted for a single Lockheed Electra Model 10-A with extensive modifications. The plane, designated XC-35 by the Army, was intended for use as a high-altitude research and pressurized cabin test plane. As a result, the basic Electra fuselage was redesigned with a near circular cross section to better withstand the stresses of pressurization. Next, the large passenger windows were replaced with much smaller slit windows. The interior was split into two sections: the forward pressurized section had room for three crewmen and two passengers. The aft section, behind the pressure bulkhead had room for one additional passenger but could only be used at lower altitudes (below 12,000 feet). Besides the pilot and copilot, the XC-35 carried an engineer who controlled the pressurization and high altitude research equipment. The XC-35 was the world's first airplane specifically constructed with a pressure cabin.
The XC-35 was fitted with a pair of Pratt & Whitney XR-1340 radial engines. These 550-hp engines were turbo-supercharged to deliver the necessary high-altitude performance. The plane was designed to fly at altitudes above 30,000 feet.
The aircraft was delivered to Wright Field, Ohio, in May 1937. It was used in an extensive flight test program, and as a result, the Air Corps was awarded the 1937 Collier Trophy for the most significant aircraft development of the year.
Model Berenice (mm:3736508) from an Aug 2016 photo shoot in Deep Ellum, Dallas, TX. Shot on expired Kodak TMAX 100 film with an Ansco 1065 camera.
I acquired this plastic 35mm camera at an estate sale in Dallas, Texas for $5. It has an Ansconar f:8 45mm fixed-focus lens, no shutter speed settings, and minimal control of the aperture via "cloudy" and "sunny" iconagraphic settings. For a cheap plastic camera it actually seems reasonably sturdy and well-made.
This camera is not a "real" Ansco. It was made by a Hong Kong company called Haking, who purchased the Ansco brandname from GAF in 1978.
You can find more information about this camera in the Ansco 1065 article at Camera-Wiki.org.

Week 35/52: So Nacho read the other day in The Star an article about this guy swimming across Lake Ontario and thought to himself what's the big deal and thought that he could do that easily. Well I guess that wasn't such a smart idea. Swimming 52km across the lake does need a little more preperation.
