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.
You probably have this but in case you don't:

Thanks for the heads-up. I do have it. What I need is a copy of the U.S. Navy report documenting the trials aboard Coral Sea. I've only got bits and pieces from other reports that quote or refer to some parts of it.
DeleteThere a couple of videos of F-111B testing posted on YouTube that you may find interesting (if you haven't seen them already):
