Goodyear built F2G with the massive P&W R4360 4 row 28 cylinder engine. Only 10 were built as WWII come to a close.

http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/i...y009/TB-25.jpg</div></div> I always liked the postwar schemes on wartime planes. This TB-25 was used by MATS (Military Air Transport Service), possibly as a proficiency airplane in squadrons that operated large 4-engined transports. They were also used in Air Training Command in pilot training squadrons for student pilots on their way to bomber and transport assignments. (Fighter-bound students went on the T-33.) When the USAF re-introduced the old style of dual-track flight training in 1994 they bought the Beechcraft T-1A "Jayhawk" (based on the original Mitsubishi MU-300, bought by Beechcraft and renamed the BE-400) to use as the transport lead-in trainer. I instructed in the T-1A 1994-97 and the cover page of the T-1A 'Dash One' aircraft manual had a drawing of a 1950s ATC TB-25N alongside a T-1A. Made me glad that someone in the USAF knew the history of the dual-track training program! |

Navy converted Boeing B 17 converted to Airborne Early Warning duty. My old squadron VW-1 originally based @ Barbers Point HI. Photos are from early 50's, note lower radomes. |

Re: How bout a few Vintage aircraft photos?
Don't think so, I do not recognize that airplane from the Chandler Air Museum and the AZ CAF doesn't have one. The only one I recall being there was the P51D "Ho Hun" which I flew over 20 years ago when we visited there.
