the rescue of streetcar 304
I flew the right seat in A-3Bs as a Bombardier/Navigator back when the plane had a nuclear mission…and, yes, I had an assigned, planned target in you know where—for several deployments. I’ve flown T-34, T-28, F-9F, T-2A/B/C, T-A4J (instructor), A-4L, and A-7A/B models. I’m an old codger…retired in ’84.
Don’t know if any A-7Es are available but would suspect they are all worn out because they were actually extended for Desert Storm. A great plane though…. Excellent power and a terrific bomb platform. But, Hornets would be the way to go for the Aussies.
Is the Scooter on the forum a U.S N. type?
