Re: Aircraft pics
I was on the carrier CVA Forrestal when they were doing carrier quals for the F-14s. As an ET, I could go up on one of the radar platforms and watch the flight deck action during flight ops. Very impressive and LOUD!

Re: Aircraft pics
Most times I love my job but there are days (such as custom rewiring) that make me sit back and think. That is until I am reminded what my brother has to go thru with his restorations. I will no longer complain. My wires are at least color coded. His are all white with code numbers imprinted on them to designate their destination. No wonder he is more grey than I am. Here is one of his latest projects, an TA-4J Skyhawk.

Re: Aircraft pics
Beautiful Scooter AND A-1 Skyraider. "You've been had by a Spad" ... ("business" card carried and dropped by A-1 jocks in Vietnam) I've got one of them some dang where in my trove of war stuff. TAZ

Amazing. I have a background in Electronics and I actually love wiring, but thankfully I've never had to deal with wiring like that!

T/Sg was a real pain in the south end. We had to keep notes on each tail number. TAZ
