Thanks Adam. [img]graemlins/salute.gif[/img] I was looking for a picture of the Japanese version but could not find one and noticed the US had a version also but I did not look for the picture.

I'd have thought dropping it was the easy part, "not so much fall as, plummet"  , getting it up there however...
Check the article above for the theory, I'm much less clear on the actual practice as demostrated on the Antonov.
