He'll Pilot Vertical Takeoff Plane -- Test Pilot James F. (Skeets) Coleman, 35, looks over the revolutionary vertical takeoff plane which he is scheduled to pilot on its first test flights in the near future. The plane, built by Consolidate-Vultee Aircraft for the Navy, sits on its tail and takes off straight up. It backs down to the ground, tail first, when landing. The counter-rotating propellers had been removed when this picture was taken yesterday. Lockheed Aircraft has made a similar plane.
