BB stackers....you ever work on the Walleye I or II? I worked the calibration/electronics part of it in the 70s. Videos of the bomb being used in VN were pretty....interesting.

IF there was a target of opportunity on, for example, a bridge, the pilot would almost always slew the bomb towards that object.AO VA-185 NIGHTHAWKS. USS MIDWAY.

Never. I did get air sick once during my first flight at flight school. My instructor in the back was laughing. He later told me he got sick his first 7 flights.So, how many of you got sea sick? I'd spend 4 years puking.
