This Prowler of VAQ 129 'Vikings' departed for its home base NAS Whidbey Island, however, shortly after take off declared an emergency, began dumping fuel and came back for a safe landing. Bad luck for the crew, good luck for the photographer. This photo is copyright © Gerhard Plomitzer, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
