Bob,
The first five times I ever flew in my life were in 130s & 141s at
airborne school. To this day I've never landed in one. Certainly
helped my fear of heights and flying.

Rummy;
If you don't mind saying, what years did you ride in the tank? I'm also
curious about the temperature inside them in the summer or hot climates?
A/C? In any event, thanks for your service. (Same to you Bob.) Bob,
were
you an aircrew member? What types?
