Thanks!
Only wish I could.

The last one I took (shipboard take-off/landing) was in a S-2D, with a pair of R1820-82As on the wings. I still got my doggie bone from my first cat shot.

Cat shots and night traps are what Naval Aviators live for.

I worked for a company that did engine conversions on S2s. Remove the radial and put a large Bunsen burner in its place in the form of a Garrett TPE-331-AW. Prior to my employment there, they did a number of conversions for the Calif. Dept. of Forestry air tankers.

Having worked two years on the Flight Deck of USS John F Kennedy CVA 67 . I can tell you there is no more exciting job in the world.
