Emergency operating procedures including ejection and landing of the U.S. Navy T2V-1 SeaStar.

Emergency operating procedures of the U.S. Navy T2V-1 SeaStar. The aircraft in flight. Simulation of ejection procedure. Pilot in the cockpit and view of gauges and flight controls. Pilot places his feet in the stirrups, sits erect in the seat with head braced against head rest. He pulls the emergency bail out cord, disconnects oxygen hose at the mask connection, and pulls down face curtain handle firing the canopy and ejecting the seat. He pulls the auxiliary canopy jettison handle and turns on the canopy open switch. In case this procedure fails, the pilot demonstrates a back up including adjustment of canopy interlock release handle, pulling of the face curtain to eject the seat through the canopy. Air start: The pilot moves the throttle to off position. View of altimeter as pilot lowers the plane to maximum altitude for an aircraft and assumes a glide. He drains the tail pipe of residual fuel and places the plane in a shallow dive. He adjusts the battery generator switch and holds position. Landing: A stylized illustration of the landing pattern depicts adjustment of glide path and approach. The plane approaches the runway, maintains speed, decreases altitude, retracts landing gear and flaps, and touches down.

Several men take an external wing tank from the back of a pickup truck and carry it inside of a hangar. An F-102A with its landing gear mounted on spring-supported platforms inside a hangar. Technicians install accelerometers mounted on wooden blocks. The aircraft equipped with external wing fuel tanks undergoes vibration tests. Electro-magnetic shakers are attached to the wing tips of the aircraft with the vibration visible on the nose of the fuel tank during low-frequence oscillation. Three engineers check oscillograph recordings made during the vibration tests. The F-102A, equipped with two external wing tanks painted black and white, in flight. External fuel tank under the left wing. The aircraft flying to the left, jettisons external fuel tank visible beneath the wings of the aircraft. Two technicians install a shaker underneath the wing of an F-102A. A F-102A taking off. F-84F chase plane and F-102A flying to the right.
