| wasa10 Houston, TX | I flew the T-2a in Meridian in 1968. It was a great plane, always ready to fly, few maintenance problems. I learned to fly formation there, it was forgiving, I almost didn't get past that part of Naval Aviation.
Later in Pensacola I flew the T-2B with two engines, what a blast! Finally power. Did gunnery and carrier qualification. A perfect airplane. 01/25/2003 @ 16:43 [ref: 6284] |
| van schaffer , MS | The T2J was redesignated the T-2A when the Navy changed a/c designators.
This aircraft flew beyond the 1962 time period you have it classed in. I was an ADJ in VT-7 in Meridian from 1966-69. With the build up in viet nam, there were close to 150 aircraft at meridian in Traron Seven and Nine (Training Squadron). The photos submitted at bottom of page are T-2c which have two engines. The T-2A was a single engine (J-34-WE48)where as, the T-2C had i believe two J-85 engines. There was an interim T-2B with two J-60 engines, but they were updated with the T-2C configuration. Each squadron in Meridaian had 3-4 T-2B's for an interim evaluation period. 06/08/2002 @ 13:54 [ref: 5076] |
