Another goodie is to have the aux air doors cycle while buttoning up the
starter and starter exhaust panels when the centerline tank is installed.

I've got a dent in my forehead from an aux air door, and stiches in my
head from an electrical access panel.


It sort of makes one wonder if the guys who designed the F-4 might have hated
maintenance types.

The F-4E was the only aircraft I ever worked on that one had to disassemble a
circuit breaker panel and dismount a rudder peddle just to change the battery.
Derigging the ailerons to remove engines was another smooth design.

What disturbs me most is I actually miss those pigs.
