Sounds/looks like Texas --- Corpus Christi ???
A T-29 from VT-29 (main clue from the original photo) at NAS Corpus Christi, advanced training for future Neptune drivers. Yep that's the T-heads on the pic and Downtown on the ri...oh wait...there is no Downtown there!
Interesting thing is that all those aircraft were tranfered from the USAF, notice that they have no BUNO but Air Force serial #'s, 13 USAF T-29B's are listed to have been converted into VT-29B's and loaned to the Navy in the early 60's...ha ha VT-29B assigned to VT-29 squadron...wander how the hell that came to.
Well now you know all NASCC's squadrons in the early 60's, VT-28 S-2 Trackers, VT-29 VT-29B and ????, VT-30 A4D Skyraiders, VT-31....I'll leave that to the VP guys..besides this is their turf.
By the way, the other aircraft VT-29 was this one...What is it???
BTW, If you're thinking it's a DC-3....you're wrong,super close but wrong, this is a DC-3 vv
