what an absolute beauty.

[@RyanBomar]

She came in for the installation of Stage III hush kits. There was a company based here named Burbank Aeronautical.

Beautiful! I wish I could catch a ride in one of these classics.

[@RyanBomar]

Nice hearing from you. Thank you, sir!

[@petervandolah5322]

Great video ...

[@dave4shmups]

Great job Ryan! I love the cockpit footage as well! I wonder where the INS navigation system was in the cockpit? Maybe she was retro-fitted with GPS?

[@davidplantier4393]

We used the OMEGA system until it was turned off by the US Navy, then subsequently a "temporary" GPS system when necessary due lack of adequate VOR or ADF ground navigation reception.
