There is always something needed for a NASA aircraft before a research flight can take place. This photo shows William J. Clark working on one of those ?somethings? while Jimmie C. Lewis watches ready to help. Working on a research project is a challenge, for there is no set pattern to follow. From the drawings to the final product there are many people who contribute to that final product -- the flight. The electronic technicians in the Instrumentation Laboratory at NASA Ames-Dryden Flight Research Facility are no exception. Bill Clark is busy creating a cannon plug to be used on the CV-990. He is soldering wires in the appropriate order so the plug will transmit electrical currents correctly when installed in the airplane. Jim stands by to give help and support on the project.

Avionics technician Keith E. Wright (holding the flashlight) is showing Inspector Gaston A. Moore the new installation of instrumentation on the nose shelf of an F-104 at the NASA Ames - Dryden Flight Research Facility. The nose section of an F-104 is composed of a shelf that is attached to the bulkhead of the airplane and holds instrumentation enclosed by a nose cone. The nose cone is similar to a drawer. When open it reveals the instrumentation for repairs and new installations, and when closed it is held in place by fasteners for flight.
