    ” …sometimes risky…”
    That’s got to be an understatement.
    Thanks for the post.

    Haven’t seen this one before. I have seen clips of the RF-84 trying to dock & un-dock, with sometimes spectacular results.
    FICON didn’t work out well either.

    The 1940’s-1960’s must have been a great time to work in aeronautics. So many ideas being tried, research being done and nothing seemed too crazy. So many aircraft companies competing also, which probably helped.
