| PAUL M. STEUBE SOUTH BOSTON, VA | I flew the Albatross out of NAS Agana, Guam, 1966-68. I've come to a point in my life when I feel like indulging myself. I'm having a company build models of the 8 aircraft I flew in the Navy. Does anyone have pictures or diagrams showing JATO bottles mounted on the HU-16? 08/07/2011 @ 21:38 [ref: 45891] |
| John Harding Coffs Harbour, KS | We were a four-man team inspecting coral reefs at Kapingamarangi and Nukuoro during July 1969. Our transport from Agana, Guam was with HU-16's. We had two take-off's with JATO which was very exciting. Also ran onto a coral reef while preparing for take off. (As any boat captain knows, this is easy to do when the calm lagoon surface is glassy). I made a short film of the trip which will be put on You Tube eventually. Pictures from Kapingamarangi are now on our blog www.fathomoz.com (April 26, 2010). We would be interested in hearing from anyone who flew on those trips which were our best adventures of all time. 04/27/2010 @ 13:07 [ref: 26092] |
