61-7979
"I was an Airman working in the 9th AMS photo shop from 1975-1977. In the spring of '77 I rode the Habu hauler in to work with my 35mm camera (in its case -- we weren't allowed to photograph the shop areas for security reasons, so I wanted the casual observer to see that the camera was "not open for business"). Anyway, in the morning I went out on the launch truck to take pictures of 979 going out on a mission to Korea. We had loaded 979 with two OOC and one TROC cameras. 979 was fitted with a SLR nose on this day. The plane took off fine but aborted the mission after about 1.5 hours. I was out taking pictures of the aircraft and trying to stay out of the way. All these color photographs came from this launch." - Steven Myatt |
