I was a witness to the first flight of the QU-22. I was on the second shift Crash Crew when the B-40 pilot lifted off just before sunset for its inital test hop. There were only about 10 persons that actually witnessed this flight because of its secrecy.

It was interesting to say the least and almost ended in disaster.
