About Me
- Tailspin
- In 1956, at age 12, I lived on NAS Sangley Point in the Philippine Islands. Always enamored with airplanes, I imprinted on the Cougars, Banshees, and Skyraiders then being deployed. Not able to be a Naval Aviator because I was nearsighted, I instead became an aeronautical engineer and general aviation pilot. Now retired, I write books and monographs on U.S. Navy aircraft.
Tommy, do you know what weapon is in the pix? My guess would be a torpedo, but I don't see a parachute package on the weapons.
ReplyDeleteRichard - I lightened the photo and enlarged it. The fins look like the Mk 43's but there are clearly no propellers or the parachute. My guess is that these are loading dummies.
DeleteThanks!
