Big Eagle 3

Two-man crew preparing to deplane after reaching NKP. Note the eight .50 caliber guns in the nose. (I think Randy Ryman and Jim Young have a few stories about working on the armaments of the A-26s at NKP.) Notice the vertical stabilizer extending well above the cockpit and the proximity of the propellers. The A-26 was a difficult aircraft to get out of in flight.
