MILLER, TD2 Pamela pamanne3@gmail.com "...I served with VR-911 and the Training Command at NAS South Weymouth, Massachusetts from 1959 to 1963. I ran flight sims and the film library in the big blimp hanger. I was there when the Naval Air Development Unit (NADU) unit wrecked one on the 450ft experimental blimps while trying to get it into the hanger. I took pictures of that accident and later went to the Admirals review board on it. I am the person whose idea it was to build the two ASW flight sims from junk aircraft and I did the conceptual design and most of the electronic installation on them. Everyone thought I had gone nuts when I suggested the idea which came to me on a crew sim mission to NAS Brunswick, Maine when I spotted a P2V hulk in the dump there. We used to fly up there to use their P2V crew sims..." [12MAY2009]
