Rescue divers are trained to stay with the basket to be sure it is stabilized during the retraction....then drop off.

Most of Dennis' stuff was studio born and carried around with them- he was an awful drummer- known as a clubber................

He's friggin' 70- what do you expect?

Bruce Johnston ,Glen Campbell, Jardine- regular party before the real fighting began

He's a clubber, not a drummer

Lots of memories- two stand out- sitting in Mr. Anderson's office when President Kennedy was assassinated and in Mr. Spencers class when the Cuban Missle crisis brought us too close for comfort........

His feet were working for sure as well...........nice wheelie!

PITTSDRIVER1970- you "dive" at the poles to swing the hook (it acts like a pendulum) so that it can pick the banner. If you did not, your have a better chance at "snagging" the gear.

Nice pick.................

Just curious, what is "hard IFR"? I know, I know........looks like you have an anxious CFI on board

They are not truthful, therefore a lie...........

rizer912- "there you go again" letting the POTUS blame it on someone else.

the POTUS can't tell the truth because he has never told the truth- just lovely having an immature child in the WH who has never had to find a job, hire anyone or fire anyone.....sorry rizer912, he just does not have a cl...

I might have taken off with all three landing gear...........

So, that is why they have only one green light on the Cessna single RG's- YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE F'ING MAIN GEAR!!!!!!!!

Chainsaw is the ultimate breakman..............Meatloaf in disguise! Whose the guy with the guitar? Billy Joels father?

Chainsaw is teh MAN!! Great breakman

Hard to believe that he is still ALIVE!

Jeremy was their lead singer for about a month and wrote and recorded with them then decided not to have his personal homelife turn into a train wreck

Images are backwards! Music is forwards.............

They went right atter The Four Seasons and won!!

Jardin couldn' believe what he had gotten into.............

Crap, they were like 12 years old..............nothing to enhance anything- just true grit on stage.

not sure if it is time in the aircraft as much as it is numbers of take offs and landings....yes time certainly helps, but how you use that time certainly matters as well-

Mr. Tisdale was the best- He played sports (NBA) and the music world with a ton of great people who probably could have done it without him, but they knew he was the best and that he helped make them what they are today.

Amazing what these boys did wth less computing capability than a digital watch......they tested, they proved and they conquered......for us!

These pilots were trained as test pilots and tested this stuff to the limit- with computers with less capability than a digital watch or old TI calcuator- there are tons of handwritten notes in the archives associated with each of these flights. Thank goodness for excellent teachers in the days o...

need a new technolgy bird... the orbiters are really old technology.

Nice action in the cockpit- great job!

no runway 28 at KOBI at last look.
