• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I'd forgotten about this aircraft being at Pax River, when I was there in the 1970s. Calspan Corp. owned/operated it, and the Navy Test Pilot School used it in their curriculum. I believe the aircraft was used to demonstrate certain flight characteristics. I rode in it one time only. If I recall correctly, the flight was somewhat boring; but then after flying backseat in Phantoms, it would have been! NC

You know, I'd started painting this for the SOH Invader and never finished it. I need to dig around my disks and find it......
