I was a flight engineer with VP-64 stationed at NAS Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. When I checked in to the squadron after going through F/E school with VP-30 there was one P-3A sitting on the flight line and no one to fly it, this was August of 1973, the BUNO. was 151360, LU1. I was the third F/E to qualify in the P-3 at VP-64. A Mech. by the name of Lenny Humiston was the first and a Hammer Slammer by the name of Bob Kral (BK) was the second. The hanger was old and rickity at best, and was condemned before I left NAS Willow Grove, Pennsylvania.
