[QUOTE="BillM, post: 4040059, member: 45785"] I was trained to work on the Tweet, but never got to see a Dragonfly. On the Tweet, if you had two techs to work on it, you could change the nose wheel without a jack. One guy leaning on the tail, and one pulling the wheel. And they used the same engine as the -60 power unit that the F-111D's that I worked on later used to turn over the engine for startup. I believe the F-4D's my ex worked on also used the -60, but didn't ever get to play with the F-4's except in class. At that time, they were my favorite jet. Then the A-10 came along... Though I never got to work on the airframe, just photographed tests of their weapons systems. [/QUOTE]
