I wonder if this was in a model? If not, could it?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/B-52-STRATO...itemZ4542351106Did one have to go thru "training" again to be qualified to use it?*:-*Jim

Dear Jim,ROTFLMAO!Ahhh, I know that item well. And yes, you do have to go through retraining -- the most difficult part of using this 'system' in the aircraft was how to keep your butt strapped to it and perform your 'mission' in high turbulence! If you should 'slip off target' things can get ugly very quickly and the rest of your crew could ask you to to a 'Slim Pickins' out the bomb bay!Somehow, I do believe the actaul use of this 'system' was deleted from the POH by mistake. Believe me, in a 8 hour flight to target and 8 hours back, it saw a ton of use!Started my day off with a grin. Thanks!Best to you and yours and 'remain on target,son!'Clayhttp://www.dreamfleet2000.com/gfx/images/F...ers/Dopke01.jpgClayton T. Dopke (Clay)Major, USAF (retired)"Drac"
