Recollections: I basically remember nothing about this flight. Surprising, since it’s such an unusual airplane. The date makes me think I was on a class field trip (at this time I was the Chief Flight Instructor–CFI–at USNTPS and the date is about right for a field trip with class 111) but I have no memory of flying this plane.
