Easier to find buttons and switches by feel that way. Besides, the tips of the fingers always wore off well before the gloves were ready for replacement.juvathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09096708575138552532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-52247839265405843502016-06-17T07:23:25.983-07:002016-06-17T07:23:25.983-07:00Need a bigger screen!

Of course, I always shudder when I see the sleeves of the flight suit rolled up and the finger tips cut off of the gloves. Fire ain't your friend.

Nice use of positive g in the ridge clearing. Got ALL the WAY down to 500'! Gutsy move to raise your visor and take off the mask on a low level. Birds have a nasty way of showing up when you don't expect them too. (But I wasn't there, so who am I to critique?)juvathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09096708575138552532noreply@blogger.com
