re: #279 Anymouse
Well, aboard it. I was an intermediate level ECM repair avionics technician third class at the time, assigned to attack squadron VA-34 (at the time, the squadron flew A-6 Intruders).
Neat attack bird. But I think the A4, Heinemanās hotrod, remains my favorite navy plane. Probably due to seeing the Blue Angels the first time when they were flying themā¦
