Flew the “G” stateside, mostly flew the “B” and “J” mods.
I liked the “G” , ( Navy had a dozen of them (One was lost over the North) it had a downlink capibility that allowed hands-off carrier landings, but the Navy didn’t,they stripped all the electronics gear out of them in ‘67 (I think)and returned them to the “B”status.

Wow, Navy “G” driver. You’re a pretty rare bird for flying that pretty rare bird.

I have a friend who flew the USAF “G”, including combat in Desert Storm.
