| Mack McCormack Houston, TX | The best part about the T-29 was cabin pressurization. It made extended flights and RON's a little more comfortable.
I was there from March 1963 to June 1966, thanks to Robert S. McNamara and LBJ. The only officers I remember are Cdr. Elliott and Lt. Baumgartner. The best times were before Elliott became CO. Weekend trips to Mexico were a real hoot. Mack McCormack, ATN3 12/31/2011 @ 18:45 [ref: 51767] |
