Note cutaway of nose gear doors to allow this deflector to go flush to the fuselage.

Wonderful to see this bird fly again. I had some time on her for Transport Canada in Montreal between 1974 & 1977.

This is a MK 2. The MK 3 had nose gear and a viper jet engine in each of the outboard nacelles. These were used for takeoff and low altitude flight at heavy weights or when one of the Griffin engines failed. I flew a little over 1000 hrs on MK2 & MK3 as a Canadian while on exchange with the RAF in the late 60s.

These are P2V-7s minus the tip tanks.

Suspect these are former RCAF aircraft. I flew about 1200 hours ASW on these birds from 1965 to 1967 from Summerside, PEI and Comox, BC. Fond memories and great photo.
