transport detail
This Skyknight Marine Jet used in Korea and Vietnam was barged through Waterford past the scene of the cliff jumper of chapter 264 . Details are important and that is the function of the ESAM museum of chapter 276 where this aircraft is headed. GE research on radar and autopilot had been conducted for this aircraft at the facility. I try hard not to create redundant chapters but I've noticed that most people pay little attention to them anyway so I include these cross references, perhaps to amuse myself.
You might ask, "How do they secure the wings in the folded position?" I wondered too, until I zoomed in (click). Yup, it was already covered in chapter 11; Dad made the device.

Skyknight and TCE exposure At the DEC we set water quality limits for TCE; it's a commonly used solvent for jet engine mechanics.
