Thanks a lot for your reply.  That fills a gap in my past!  Glad nothing
fell out as you guys passed overhead !
By the way, may I say I enjoy the aviation history postings.  I meant
to keep the one telling of the chap who first determined how to recover
from a spin, but that one blew by me.  That topic was always a favorite
with my students in my younger days.  Thanks again for the gen on the
B-52 flights over my farm.
