| Bobby Thrower Willow Springs, NC | I was a flight mechanic/crew chief with 7th AF at Tan Son Nhut, Siagon from June 1971-1972. Flew a lot of missions and had great crews. Best year of my life. Also was flight mechanic and worked on the T-39 at Hurlbert Field, Fla. from 1968-1971. Lucky enough to attend T-39 school at Andrews in 1970. Great plane. When I win the lottery, I will own one and park it in my living room. 02/22/2008 @ 06:38 [ref: 19742] |

| Rick Mitchell Loudon, TN | I worked as a crew chief on the T-39A at Shaw AFB, S.C.
From 1972-1974 and returned to Shaw and the T-39 from 1977 to 1981. These aircraft were attached to Det.2 375th Aero- medical wing from Scott AFB, Ill. I was crew chief on s/n 58-2869 which was the second T-39 built. I enjoyed the time spent working on them and consider them to be my favorite aircraft. Thanks for providing information on them and for helping keep fond memories alive. I would greatly enjoy hearng from any T-39 crew chief that was at Shaw during The times I was stationed there. As a note of interest, The first T-39 that was painted in the white paint scheme At Shaw was 61-0666 which was crewed at the time by Sgt. Harry Lane. This aircraft was the first T-39 I worked on. 01/19/2002 @ 22:25 [ref: 4131] |
