| Don Wade Elgin, IL | At Patrick AFB from 1966 to 1973. An instructor with a Field Training Detachment. We taught the Telemetry equipment on board the EC-135N. My area was the Antenna system that was housed in the big "snoopy" nose of the plane. I probably flew on all the 8 planes at one time or another. I don't remember them by number. 03/23/2007 @ 14:29 [ref: 16009] |

| James \"Chilly\" Coldiron Bonaire, GA | I flew as an avionics technician on both 327 (EC-135N) and 125 (EC-135Y) from 1989 through 1994. The mission of transporting the USCENTCOM CINC to multiple locations around the globe was the best job I had in the military.
On April 2, 2006, 327 is expected to find it's last home at the Robins AFB Museum. Hopefully one day it will be an open exhibit to allow everyone to see the interior setup that served the CINC, his support staff and the aircraft crew. Chilly 03/31/2006 @ 16:03 [ref: 12995] |
