I flew as an aircrew member (flight engineer) on the B-66 in France during the "cold war". Great airplane, even greater aircrews; all true professionals and patriots. We kept the Russians at bay to say the least. I am grateful for the experience on such an aircraft... The memories live on!
My late dad was a lead EWO on the EB -66C and E models out of Tahkli. The picture of a B-66 from the bombay camera of a B-52 looking down from 35,000 is his aircraft.
Thanks for the posting it caused me to take a journey back in time...Korat, Thailand 1972 - 73 as part of the 388Tactical Fighter Wing. Our 42nd TEWS had both the three crew and seven crew 66's, I worked in maintenance where we had some great times despite the missing pages in our Tech Orders .
