Many years ago, as an Air force Staff Sergeant, I was told to climb into the back seat of a T-33 and photograph the arrival of a squadron of new F-86Ds ------- with 4x5 Speed Graphic and film packs (my choice) we took off --------

Met the incoming, took some pretty good shots AND learned a lot about handling a large format camera in the high G environment of a jet aircraft.

In 1955, an Air Force Staff Sergeant, I was told to get in the back seat of a T-33 and photograph the arrival of a

squadron of F-86Ds ---------- with a 4x5 speed graphic and film packs (my choice) ------

All went fine - the camera was heavy under high G loads --- but the pictures came out fine.
