Open Sesame

 



The Herc's open up their back end. This was taken from inside the plane when the back door opened. 
 When the planes land, they often continue to throw a con-trail. It's a real mess. We often can't see when we approach the back of the plane.

Bottom:
We used radio to co-ordinate the activities in the back of the plane with the tractors. The tractors had to be very precise. Like a bull in a china shop. You had to put your forks on the back of the plane with-in 1/2 inch of center.
