I've flown a few Landing Modes in the TRAM, but even then they were a bit
squirrelly without good offsets and a good Az- and El-Lock. All Whidbey

BNs had
local offsets down pat, but it could get interesting at an unfamiliar

field on a
dark night. Some BNs would use the Laser, but that was a no-no in many
places.


How was the laser used to make landing easier in bad weather? Why was it a
"no-no in many places?"
