One more:

The placard on the side of the fuselage at the forward cockpit states, in red and capital letters, "DONT STALL"

Interesting the 2 different covers over the MLG downlocks.
Originally my prints show they were a solid alum cover.
At some point they decided that a window there would allow the pilot to visually see the down lock pin and lug when the gear was down.
This view shows 2 different types of covers. The R/H has the newer 2 piece alum which sandwiches a square plexiglass window and the L/H shows what looks like a small rectangle cut into the alum cover.
The spots on the wing I refer to are directly above the MLG, inboard of the cover where the outer wing connects to the center wing and about half way from the leading edge to the round fuel filler cap.

Third photo down, I wonder if the poor guy got too slow--seems to be snapping out of a stall--because he was trying to save the approach but the airplane in front of him didn't clear the deck fast enough. Time to give it up and go around.

I wondered the same thing. Also wondering how the pilot in the first photo got into that position. Nose down with the belly against the stack?
