Dan,
Which version of E did you work on? I worked for a year at Hill AFB on
the Slat Mod line. Did you ever put the INS Can in the RO's console?

Geeze, that's back in 1978 - 1980, Hahn AB, 50 FW. We had TISEO and non TISEO.
I don't recall what blocks they were.

The INS platform was no thrill, but having to change the battery was worse.

My theory is they hung 4 ropes from a ceiling, suspended an engine from each of
the first two, the CADC from the third and battery from the fourth. Then they
built the aircraft around them.

Sounds about right for Old McDonnells pig farm :), I hated to work on them.
