Coded 18 with USN unit VQ-2 this reconaissance Skywarrior was arriving on a weekday before the 76 Air Tattoo. Ed Heinemann's brilliance and weight control discipline got the US Navy a carrier based strategic nuclear bomber. Pan Am looked into leasing a couple around 1957 to give their crews transonic operating experience before the 707 arrived,but nothing came of it.

What a thrill! First time for me to see inside an A-3 cockpit. After retirement from the Navy this aircraft went to Raytheon at Mojave as N572HA. Unfortunately, only the cockpit section has survived to go display at the super Estrella Warbirds Museum.

She was recued from the desert in Oct. 2003 and now waits in the Yanks Air Museum yard for a space in the restoration hangar.

The A3D-2Q, later redesignated EA-3B, had windows for its four electronic warfare crew, making it look like the coolest private jet I could think of. However, the A3D did not have ejection seats even for its three cockpit crew and was morbidly nicknamed 'All Three Dead'.

Always an impressive type to see, the A-3 was never common in the UK but this one took a break from its ELINT duties to fly up from VQ-2 at Rota in Spain for the 77 Air Tattoo. Damaged during a carrier launch in 9.87 and retired to AMARC in 11.90. Rear fuselage apparently used to repair another damaged aircraft, 144856
