| Description | This drone has an excessive nose-up attitude and is probably about to stall. The terrain in the distance appears to be Sutton's Bay, indicating that the ship was heading westwards in Grand Traverse Bay, off the northern end of the Old Mission Peninsula. Note the Grumman J2F Duck off the ship's port bow, possibly acting as a drone control aircraft. |
