English

Subject field(s)
  • Aeronautical Engineering and Maintenance
  • Engineering Tests and Reliability
CONT

Two check valves were installed in the system subsequent to the functional tests to correct a problem with uneven fuel transfer during flight. Because the additional manifolds and valves could potentially alter the characteristics of the fuel system during refueling, another ground functional test was conducted.

CONT

The M1 [bomb lift truck] was manually positioned and used a hydraulic-operated lift platform to raise bombs weighing up to 2,000 pounds. It lifted the bomb and its handling stand approximately six inches so the aircraft hoist could raise the bomb into the bomb bay. The M1 was intended as an accessory to the M6 bomb service truck but was used as a stand-alone bomb loader.

CONT

After the functional check was completed, the bombs were placed on the bomblift truck-one at a time-and loaded into the bay.
