Preflight briefing and 920th Pavehawk flight in support of Space Shuttle Launch (STS-129).
On Novemer 16th 2009 I was given the rare opportunity to attend a briefing with the 920th Rescue Wing, the Air Force Reserve Command's only combat search and rescue unit. The mission was to fly in support of the Space Shuttle Atlantis flight to the International Space station. The briefing and flight provide an interesting look into what it takes to support the possible rescue of a space shuttle crew either at the launch pad or in the Atlantic ocean. Three HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopters are featured in this video which are part of larger support effort with multiple agencies and service branches.

    Did that in 1983 when exiting the plane you turned to the side both hands on the side of the door frame right foot on the step lean forward reach over onto the bar with your right hand then bring your left hand over then push yourself back Did three jumps Marked up Excellent release Excellent position Excellent count Landed on the landing mark all three times This was with Manchester Free Fall club Initially I did it to raise money for Live Aid I absolutely loved it Unfortunately I couldn't carry on to Free Fall as at the time it was pretty expensive to buy all the gear etc It's a life experience I would not of missed for the world

"Ranger" was selected because of the British colonial Rogers Rangers (Queens Rangers).

    The studio camera pedestals are actually robotic. Those robots are the TSM AutoCam (that was all the rage for many studios Radamec and Vinten also was in the market and ironically all 3 companies are now part of Vinten today), from what I can tell they have manual control on the panning and tilting. I think the pedestals had to be connected to it's controller to truck the pedestal. It's hard to tell in the shots if the operator was using a tiny joystick to move the pedestal in some of the sweeping shots or if there was literally a manual-only dial. The modern equivalent is the CamBot, that is robotic and is intended to be controlled by automation on a robocam op. Regarding the whole setup. This was a year before WSVN's _Newsplex_ - it's still today considered to be a game changer for it's time. Of course the plex was all partitioned off by a glass wall, and they only went into the plex when a story warranted. Their early attempt at a 11pm did originate within the plex, but clearly KIRO was ahead of it's time, and if they had phased it in, it may not had been a PR disaster as it became

    If you ever saw the movie “Ray”, which is Ray Charles’ biography, you already know this, but back when Ray was starting out (in Georgia) he played keyboard in some pretty questionable places, was doing heroin, and was considered to be a troublemaker by the State of Georgia. Finally, the State of Georgia told Ray Charles he was not welcome in their state anymore and forced him to leave. Years later, Ray got his act together, got off heroin, and in 1960 recorded Georgia on My Mind. Then, in 1979, the State of Georgia issued Ray Charles a formal apology for kicking him out of the state, invited him to play at the state legislature (this video), and presented him with a plaque stating they were making Georgia on My Mind the official state song of Georgia. I guess Ray showed them who was boss in the end. 😉

    Elizabeth Clare Prophet was responsible for horrendous deeds while she was the CULT LEADER of the Summit Lighthouse and later the CHURCH UNIVERSAL AND TRIUMPHANT. From ripping off her staff financially for decades, to treating her staff like slaves, to approving the illegal purchase of caches of weapons and military vehicles, to calling for the building of a vast underground bunker complex, to having sex with specially chosen members of her staff, and ALL IN THE NAME GOD and the ASCENDED MASTERS. ECP's arrogance and pride knew no bounds and she was always totally aware of her misdeeds!

    Who was the consultant behind this anyway? Was it a Frank Magid thing? I don't think Ken Hatch and Andy Ludlum dreamed it up all on their own. WTHR in Indianapolis had done basically the same format 15 years earlier, in a smaller studio and without a radio station to integrate: czcams.com/video/_PP8--wqc5E/video.html It would not surprise me if some of the same brains were involved on the creative side.
