Scott,

I have one taken on one of my missions in Korea back in the 50's … I believe it was at K-55 (Osan) and a little different in that I took it from the rear with the doors open … I'll see if I can find it.

By the way, the one in Dayton has the modified tail to catch the capsule on it's way to earth .

Also I have the one at Dayton digitized for embroidery along with one from a model

That brings back memories. Georgia Box (in the last photo) was one of 10 or so warbirds owned and or associated with the Air Acres Museum at Cartersville, GA. David Brady was one of the 3 primary guys behind the museum and died in a midair between his T-37 and his A-26 resulting in two fatalities and the loss of the T-37.

At one time or another, the museum owned/flew/or was associated with a T-28, T-37, C-47, C-45, P2V, C-119, S2F, B-25, A-26, Grumman Albatross, Navion, Twin Navion, O-1, O-2, Piaggio Gull, and Percival Pembroke. That whole enterprise came unwound within a few years of the T-37 accident.
