FS9 Textures for the Grumman E-1B Tracer by Milton Shupe. This one has a bit of history. Depicted is an aircraft of VAW-111 which was only one of 2 E-1B's aboard USS Hornet on the Apollo 11 recovery mission, July 1969. Both E-1s aboard Hornet that day were a detachment of VAW-111. The pilot of this particular aircraft was Lt. Jim Dickson. Their mission: patrol the location designated to be the estiamted splash down area of the capsule; locate and track the capsule upon re-entry; establish communications with the capsule and relay to Houston and Hornet; and direct recovery aircraft in and out of the area. Lt. Dickson was the first to speak to Neil Armstrong after the capsule emerged from the re-entry communication blackout. And the rest, they say, "...is history!"
