Attack helicopter gunnery manual

It tamed the tail-wag pretty well. Ultimately the Cobra never was certified as an all-weather platform, however. These pictures were taken after the operational fleet guys stole the TSU and gun back, so it has a "trainer nose" and the gun is a pretty good facsimile , but is fake. I have a bit of flight time in We usually took 8-views or sometimes 6-views to document each test configuration.

Those shots are on the famed Edwards dry lakebed. That is why I failed my one instrument check ride. It really had nothing to do with having my head up my 4th point of contact. LOL I knew it couldn't be my fault. I was just going through some random images from the USAAM and found a few that looked like they would fit here. I wish I had some closeups of that high vis scheme.

I may have posted this one before. I have a bunch from this project which was called "Volcano" at least that is what is on the boxes of slides I have found. This just happened to be a random image from the project. Was this an icing project? Finally here are a couple showing personnel again. I figure I'll eventually find one with Matt in it:. M Volcano was a scatterable mine system. Each of those blue canisters contained six mines. Political considerations led to an all AT mix until the system was finally taken out of service.

The canisters would be ejected in sequence, generating a minefield. Some info on it here. The M was intended as replacement for the M56 subsystem for the UH-1 series. That shot of personnel inside a UH-1 is interesting from the perspective that the two crewmen in back are Crash-Fire-Rescue firefighters. One of my friends was assigned to such a unit as a Firefighter at an airfield in Korea. I think I may have put that pic in the wrong thread. Oh well, I'm glad you found something interesting in it anyway.

Thanks for the info on the Volcano system. I think the pic I posted was part of an icing test with the system installed. I'm sure Matt will know. First is the V initial ice protection system test in Duluth, That's v ship 2.

Most of the later natural icing testing was done in Nova Scotia Boeing did most of their natural icing testing there. Joe correctly identified the Volcano mine dispenser system. It was still the XM at that time. We also conducted icing tests on the system. Somewhere I have a shot of the Volcano actually dispensing mines. I think the third may actually be the first production D-model. It appears to have the final FAB design. Photo is on the ramp at the McDonnell plant at Mesa.

McDonnell liked to put the big white letters aircraft for significant tests. The McDonnell guys applied those markings to tweak the General Electric folks during the great 2-year C digitial engine controller fiasco.

Chris is correct about the first pic. However, it DOES belong in this thread, as that is a crash rescue chase during icing tests at Duluth.
