    OMG! TBM Avenger #95. That was the number on the plane my uncle was shot down in while flying a mission off the Yorktown (CV-10). He was an Avenger gunner in VT-1 and #95 was shot down by AA fire on June 20, 1944, while glide bombing a Japanese carrier. He was considered MIA for a year and then KIA, June 20, 1945.

    Be that its a seagoing bird, the Avenger reminds me of a big Albatross when it tucks @3:13and spreads @4:05 its wings.
