Grumman Tracker Startup and Wingfold EHLE

This Grumman Tracker, in horrible KLM colors, and with an even more terrible ROC sticker on her, still has it!

Startup and wingfold/unfold during the Dakota Fly in at Lelystad Airport EHLE 2008

I worked on the last ones in the U.S. Navy. My father was also in for 30 years, and the sound of the engines are very distinctive. I also worked on the C-1 and T-28, which had the same engines. The wings need be exercised occaisonally or the fold & lock cylinders will leak. The Grumman A-6 used a similar fold mechanism, 2 cylinders in each wing, with the "A" frame that you see in the fold area.

Gewoon te maf.

Laat zo´n kist in zijn oregineelkleuren vliegen.

Wat een kutgezicht is dat.
