I was the crew chief of this aircraft in 1966 when it arrived at AF Flight Test Ctr, Edwards AFB, CA from Lease-balment to Lockeed Marrieta GA. Many of the important operational TCTO modifications had not been done during lease. The acft quickly got to be known as "604 Sick Old Whor". I remained its crew chief until spring 1967 |
