To my knowledge, Lex had no needles. They certainly weren't there on my
initial night qual in the F-8. R / John "John R Weiss" wrote in message news:xxzfc.44064$xn4.148428@attbi_s51... "Pechs1" wrote... What's an 'ILS'...needles were for Nancys..... True... They never worked on Lex for my initial A-6 qual... The Combat Buckeye and TraCom Scooters didn't have them, either. |
