XP11: Paine Field

How things change.  In '57 I was a lowly airman weather observer at Paine AFB - joint use with Snohomish County Airport.  We had and east/west runway and the county had a smaller one.  Boeing was flight testing the Dash 80 and made daily low approaches - our little weather shack was right on the approach end so wonderful pictures.  Our complement was a squadron of F89 Scorpions, 2 H19 choppers, a C47 and the Guard had 2 C119's.  A very enjoyable assignment.
