Bob Lassiter Island of Bonaire, NC | I flew this girl in USMC in Japan 1961. Had to fly it with 4 others to Japan from Okinawa. Almost did not make it because we had a weather front come in. The chase plane was a DC-3. One of my fellow pilots ran out of fuel on the runway as we landed. It was close but we made it.
