Slide taken by Norbert Kröpfl. - Syrian Arab's G-AYVG was leased from British Midland Airways in 1975 and again in 1976. It never wore a full colour scheme, but the tail colours changed from very dark (as shown here) to white, and to green in 1976 when it had returned from a lease to Pakistan Airlines / PIA.

scan from the NK slide collection. - Arab Wings had this Falcon 20 on lease from Executive Jet Aviation between May and July 1975, in order to get experience with the aircraft type for their executive customers. At the end of the lease period, however, the company opted for the Sabreliner 75A and operated up to six of those in the late 70ies and 80ies. - Today, in 2022, this brave Falcon 20 still flies on freight duties with Kalitta Charter - all of its Sabreliner counterparts have been retired many years ago.

In July of 1975 USS Hancock (CV-19) was laid up at Naval Station Subic Bay undergoing repair. Carrier Air Wing 21 (CVW-21) was allotted a couple of days deck time aboard USS Midway (CV-41), operating in the South China Sea, in order for the aircrews to maintain their carrier landing qualifications. A-4F 155034 was retired to AMARC 29 March 1994. It was later transferred to Argentina for use as a parts airframe. The cable extending up to the aft fuselage is attached to the holdback fitting which is located under the fuselage. The fitting will shear when the catapult fires.

This A-7A was lost on 6 October 1975 off Okinawa due to engine failure. The pilot had a successful ejection and was rescued by helicopter from the ship. In July 1975 the USS Hancock (CV-19) was undergoing repair at Naval Station Subic Bay. Carrier Air Wing 21 was assigned to the Hancock, and in order to maintain their carrier qualifications CVW-21 used Midway's flight deck for a couple of days. The A-4F Bureau Number 155022 "Lady Jessie" of VA-164 was the last A-4 to carry that name as the squadron was disestablished in late 1975.

The F-4 Phantom II required an extendable nose gear to increase the angle of attack on the wing. This resulted in a lower takeoff speed making it compatible with the catapults in use on USN aircraft carriers. This F-4N is loaded out with two live AIM-9 Sidewinder air to air missiles.

VMCJ-1 RF-4B tensioned in the port bow catapult aboard USS Midway. This is a good view of how the bridle is attached to the a/c. It is one continuous cable with a loop on each end that attaches to an aft facing hook inside each wing. At the end of the catapult shot, as the RF-4B leaves the deck, the bridle slips out of the hooks. The bridle is reusable as it is captured before going overboard. All current USN carrier aircraft have a launch bar attached to the nose gear that has replaced the old bridle hookup.

VAW-115 E-2B about to trap aboard USS Midway. The E-2 has a wide wingspan, so being on centerline at touchdown is critical. Across the deck are the Landing Signal Officers (LSO) who assist the pilots in making a good approach. The LSOs are squadron pilots aboard the ship and specially trained for this duty.

The USS Midway was homeported at Yokosuka Naval Base, Japan. Normal operations in the mid 1970s were conducted all over the western Pacific including the Sea of Japan, the South China Sea, as well as cruises into the Indian Ocean. Here a KA-6D is tensioned on the starboard bow catapult. CV-41 had the highest operations tempo of any Pacific Fleet carrier, and the air wing a/c had a well used look to them.
