Ah so, Mather. Nav training I assume? T-29s or T-43s? I was in the tower at Mather once, to check on their new tower installation. That tower was big enough to play football in it. The tower at Travis was much smaller, but I am sure it was the highest in the Air Force. As a result, it swayed in the wind, and when the wind got above 40 kts, we had to evacuate, which was a more terrifying experience, than the reason we had to evacuate in the first place. It involved throwing ourselves off the catwalk, into space, inside a long circular netting, and the only way to slow the descent, was to thrust arms and legs out. Not fun at all.
T-37s, then T-43s. . .
