Smyth, Commanding Officer of VP-5 at that time. This a/c was later among the original 5 P2V's assigned to the Crazy Cats. The a/c is the background buno # is 131414, LA-2, flown by PPC LCDR Walter J. Wright, Jr. This a/c was later scrapped due to having been overstressed in a flight through a thunderhead. The a/c fell 10,000 feet in about 30 seconds, in the storm. The gyros caged, pilots couldn't tell up from down. It took both pilots and the flight engineer, pulling back on the yoke for all they were worth, to get the plane back into a nose-up attitude. When we finally began gaining altitude, I could see the tips of pine trees passing by the end of the wing from my radio position. We had no long range radio communication because the trailing wire antenna had been torn off during the fall. There were riveted plates missing in the a/c airframe. Electronic equipment, racks and all, were torn loose on the inside of the a/c. It was a miricle that no one was injured inside the a/c from all the debris flying around. We made a straight-in approach to NAS JAX with the crash and fire crews standing by as we landed. Buno 131414 never flew again, due to overstress in both directions of falling and recovery. Everyone who came to view the a/c before it was removed, left in amazement at the damage it sustained in-flight..." Contributed by PETTWAY, ATR3 Robert L.
