Dayummm! Condi flew out in an S-3!

Nah, she went out on the COD.(Carrier Onboard Delivery), the C-2 Greyhound, you call they haul. Same basic airplane as the E-2 Hawkeye AEW aircraft, but with a different, and bigger, fuselage and no radome on top. Same wings, same engines, different tail structure, etc. You still trap aboard just like the S-3, but you get to do it without seeing outside, and facing backwards to boot. :)

Thanks for the correction. I had forgotten that some COD's had gone out earlier. If she'd gone out on an S-3, she would have been in a flight suit.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
