The pilot of that A-20 was pulling Hard! Not hard enough, but Hard with a capital "H".

I'd never seen anything except a fighter pulling wingtip contrails until I noticed the streamer off the left wingtip on the A-20...

That wouldn't happen to be Jock Henebry in that A-20, would it? 8) Is it known who the pilot was?
