I finally found a picture on the web that was suitable for use with a Grumman fuselage station drawing to make a pretty accurate determination of the size and location of the S2F-3 (S-2D and subsequent) crew compartment window. Click HERE.
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.
