Sweeet! Thanks Jack!

Is that a gun pod? I'm asking because of the pointy thing that looks like it is sticking out of it.

Send some more! Please! I love these old pictures of T28's. I have one around here, of a C with everything hanging out on a downwind to a carrier landing. I think it is one that you had previously posted. If you have any on carriers, that would be cool.

Thanks again Jack. Great way to start the weekend!

Never can have too many T-28 pictures!

Yep, that’s a gun pod – I’ll see if I have some more info around here.

Yup, guns , bomb racks and also notice the strakes on the cowl.
VT-5 at that time did the basic gunnery, weapon delivery, CV OPS
and tactics sylubuses in the prop pipeline for NAVAIRTRA.

Coolio! Thanks Eric!

Here is about the best T28C shot I have ever seen. I don't know where it came from, but I think Jack posted it awhile back..

Here’s some more!

Armament Control Pedestal that’s mounted on the front cockpit floor under the instrument panel. I need to find the rocket selector placard and the gyro selector panel.

Very Cool! Thanks Eric!

Where did you get that? I want one too.

On the same subject, have you seen this beauty yet? It shows the panel installed and has a gunsight too.

http://www.courtesyaircraft.com/N285DB% ... 20Spec.htm

Now that the T-6 project is gone, I think it might be time to start aquiring T28B pieces parts, small ones anyway.......

Thanks again Eric!

Not sure where it originally came from. I found it in the bottom of a box when I was looking for a bungee assy. T-28s are full of bungees.

Wow, that’s about as stock as you can get. Looks like someone stuck the KY 96 Comm in the panel.

Oh, BTW, you new screensaver is waiting for you here.

Yes. Yes it is.

Thank you Jebus, and for your precious holy works working through King and Eric. Amen

Let us bow our heads, and sing...

Now please open NAVAIR 01-60FGB-4 and repeat after me,,,,
