Great POV
Nice Shot!
Albatross!
Cool capture!
1952 GRUMMAN HU-16 according to the reg. My dad worked for Grumman on Long Island, NY for 35 years. He also saw work on the Apollo Lunar Module. Mainly F-14s, and refitting of the F-111 (General Dynamics) with new electronics. He called them "flying garbage trucks." I'm sure that this aircraft received a few electronic upgrades since 1952. A nice capture.
did he spend time at TinkerAFB?
(TinkerACW's account is fascinating...)
Looks like a cargo and equipment plane. (I know nothing about planes, however.) Or to carry soldiers to a location. It's a small beast, and I like the shadow it casts, and those long balancing wings. Props too! Well composed shot, Richard. A clunky beauty of a plane. It was probably loud and bouncy inside...(Bill---of Tara and Bill---and Rod would know about this for sure.)
I heard that they are slow. I do not know first hand
Super POV, Great capture...Merry Christmas..Have a good one..!!
I still can't figure how airplanes "fly". :) nice shot.
Excellent caputre and wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas :)
A great shot of this beautiful Grumman, Richard! I love aircraft, and I need to spend a few hours around a place like this - it's been too long. I'll wait 'till it's warmer, though... It's somewhere around 8 here - when the wind isn't blowing..
Merry Christmas to you and yours, my friend! I'll be doing some 'catching up' soon! 😁
WARNING "I stop for Aircraft and car museums". I have found several by chance.
Wonderful photo! Merry Christmas!
He rarely left the Island and never for work, but I did send a bunch of microwave components their way. I hope your grief has subsided and have a Merry Christmas.
Cool photo of these aircrafts! Lovely day! Merry Christmas.
cool landing gear
I would like to visit that museum, but this impossible now.
