    2. Hiya, Skybill! Good advice on Reno. I went twenty years ago and enjoyed it.

  2. 1954-55 the Navy was still using these at Pensacola....went there with my Dad when he was bidding a job at the time, and I still remember seeing them taxiing by at Forest Sherman field....wasn't long after that they went to T-28s, which to this day is still one of my all time favorites....to think jet pilots took primary training in these radial engine beauties....
