An email from an old Army friend. Might be of some interest to old AF veterans.
Where is Neutral, Drive, Reverse???
An old USAF buddy sent this to me.
It took 2 men to run this panel and 2 to fly the plane.
They were salvaging the last of them when I arrived in Tucson at Davis-Monthan is July of 1962.
I saw several of them fly over Missoula in 1954 when President Eisenhower opened the Smoke Jumper Center at Johnson Bell Field.
Click on the link and see a 360 panorama of the flight engineers station on a B-36: ( Six turnin' and four burnin' ) Six reciprocating R-4360s and four J-47 jets to keep an eye on, plus fuel, pressurization, hydraulics, electrical, and other systems.
