UPDATE "...Spent some time in crew 10 (?) LTJG Bell PC. We were the guys that wiped out our aircraft shortly before we returned to the states. Slide off the runway at NAS Kodiak, Alaska and terminated the radome and various other parts of the underside of aircraft. Sat on the runway for an hour waiting for a crash truck because the tower thought we had taxied since we were on GCA..." Contributed by Douglas Grace DAG1@pro-site.com [29MAR97]
