I did fly through a hurricane (typhoon) at an altitude

Back in the early '50s, before wx radar, we blundered into a hurricane
in an R5C (C-46). Flew right through the eye. We were probably at
around 10,000' altitude.



My dad has a ton of C-46 time. He was in a troop carrier squadron based out of
Tachikawa, Japan during the Korean War until 1955.
