Barrett, Ronald P., USAF, 1961-1999, NavBomb Retired, James Connally AFB Aviation Cadet 63-06, then Mather Radar-BombNav 63-23. Flew over 3,000 hrours (all nuclear weapons support) in the 7th Air Transport Squadron (Special) followed by the 7th Logistic Squadron (Special) 124/141s, then to C-119Gs, & C-130s as a Reservist. Taught airline aircrews for TWA and Saudi Arabian Airlines and finally flew as V/STOL test pilot.
To all Navigators, EWOs, ROs, Bombardiers,,,,,, Please tell other Navs to post on this web site and to promote AFNOA. There are now a number of great Navigator related web sites. Go to: www.james-connally.org www.usaf-nav-history.com Please contribute too ..... tell your history. The USAF has no such nav history effort. The closest we see of a USAF exhibit, is the one cabinet at the Nav flight school at AETC, Randolph AFB, Texas. WE(AFNOA) are working to correct the USAF's neglect in telling the Navigator's history. The USAF's posture has been that only pilot's histories are really worth keeping. WE ARE CHANGING THAT! Let us hear from you! PLEASE. Thanks to all Navs... Ron Barrett, AFNOA Historian, www.ronbarrett.com |

I logged 1,200 hours in T-29s of the 1960s, and want to locate any fellow navigators who lost hearing on them from the screeching gyros and nav equipment. While at Mather, I served as the Route Planning Officer - flying instructor in the 3535th Navigator Training Wing. I performing duties such as celestial and dead reckoning navigation; high altitude and low level Bomb-Navigation training; ferrying high level officers cross country; testing training routes; vertical photography of targets; and chart preparation. I developed chronic Tinnitus , but was denied any disability by the VA for the ensuing hearing loss I have suffered. |
