Calspan B-26

[Navy Chief]

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......
