Three sheets with printing on one side only. Good. Format is approximately 8 inches by 10.5 inches with twelve holes punched in the left side. This document contains 3 sheets/six pages with text printed on the one side only. This typed/mimeographed document shows some wear and soiling. Following two pages of instructions the third page is a filled out "sample' form DD 365F Training Mission w/Expendables retained with the name Kaylor in ink at the top left corner. Reference is made to the B-47 aircraft. This was included in a group of materials associated with the 456th Strategic Aerospace Wing SAC This type of operational communication within the SAC organization rarely survives. NAV/RN is written at the top of the front side. The 456th Bombardment Wing is an inactive United States Air Force unit. It was last assigned to the 14th Air Division of Strategic Air Command at Beale Air Force Base California where it was inactivated on 30 September 1975. The wing was redesignated the 456th Strategic Aerospace Wing and was activated at Beale Air Force Base California in February 1963. It flew Boeing B-52 Stratofortress bombers and Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker air refueling aircraft and also commanded a HGM-25A Titan I squadron until 1965. Although it operated no intercontinental ballistic missiles after then it was not until July 1972 that the wing was redesignated the 456th Bombardment Wing. The wing was inactivated in September 1975 and its personnel equipment and mission transferred to the 17th Bombardment Wing and moved to Beale on paper from Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Ohio. This Form F is the summary of the actual disposition of the load in the aircraft for any particular flight. It serves as a work sheet on which to record the calculations and any corrections that must be made to insure that the aircraft will be within weight and c.g. limitations during ground operations at unstick and at landing. It is necessary to accomplish a FORM F prior to flight whenever an aircraft is loaded in a manner for which no previous Form F. is available. It is note that at REF. 6. Bombs Rockets Etc. that "Special Weapons will be loaded with the Special Internal Stores Scale of the Load Adjuster. Their weights will be furnished by local Special Weapons Officers." The North American Aviation AGM-28 Hound Dog was a supersonic turbojet-propelled nuclear armed air-launched cruise missile developed in 1959 for the United States Air Force. It was primarily designed to be capable of attacking Soviet ground-based air defense sites prior to a potential air attack by B-52 Stratofortress long range bombers during the Cold War. The Hound Dog was first given the designation B-77 then redesignated GAM-77 and finally AGM-28. The Hound Dog continued to be deployed for a total of 15 years until its replacement by newer missiles including the AGM-69 SRAM and then the AGM-86 ALCM.

17086Aerospace Archive of eight scarce courses and technical reports relating to Jet Propulsion and Aero-Elasticity published between 1945 and 1950 a key period in the development of these fields. Included material was published by the California Institute of Technology Massachusetts Institute of Technology the US Air Force and Boeing Aircraft Company. These documents all belonged to Joseph Kelley Jr. who served in the Air Force during WWII as Director of the Structural Design Unit at the Wright Air Development Center in Dayton OH. This collection of reports demonstrates the high-level of importance that the US military placed upon the growing field of aerodynamics and jet propulsion; in the waning days of W.W.II and the early days of the Cold War Space Race this information was more crucial and critical than ever. All have ownership signature Kelly; few minor annotations in pencil. All in very good condition. <br/><br/>During WWII jet engine technology was of utmost importance for the US military as Nazi scientists had developed advanced fighter planes and bombers with jet technology; after World War II ended understanding and harnessing jet power was essential both for aviation and in early space exploration. As such jet technology was fiercely important cutting-edge top secret military information. The very rare 1945 course book on "Jet Propulsion" is even marked "Confidential" throughout; on the front cover though "Confidential" has been crossed out in pencil. This documents is published by California Institute of Technology Caltech home of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory JPL. JPL was funded in by the U.S. Army's Ordnance Corps beginning in 1944 and the lab would eventually involve technologies for space flight secure communications spacecraft navigation and control and planetary exploration. By 1945 when this report was published JPL had a staff of almost 300 and the group had begun to launch test vehicles from White Sands New Mexico to an altitude of 40 miles 60 kilometers monitoring their performance by radio and war surplus radar equipment. Interestingly two of the lectures were taught by JPL co-founder Hsue-Shen Tsien Qian Xuesen who contributed to the Manhattan Project; later under the pressure of deportation for suspicions of association with Communists he returned to China where he made important contributions to China's missile and space program. <br/><br/>"High Speed Aerodynamic Lecture Series" 1948 features the research and writing of Dr. Bernhard H. Goethert a German scientist who developed German Nazi jets during WWII. Goethert came to the US via Operation Paperclip a secret US intelligence program in which more than 1600 German scientists engineers and technicians were brought to the US after WWII to work for the federal government. As Cold War tensions increased after the end of WWII both the United States and the Soviet Union were eager to work with German scientists who could help develop advanced engines in the early years of the Space Race. <br/><br/>After WWII MIT emerged as the nation's largest nonindustrial defense contractor and almost all major research in MIT's Department of Aeronautics was performed for the military. Four reports in our archive come from MIT's Aeroelastic and Structures Research Laboratory which led the design of aircraft structures for high-speed flight virtually creating the modern specialty of aeroelasticity. These documents evaluate wing loads elasticity and the effects of different forces or stressors on the aircraft. The Boeing Company was an essential WWII-era producer of military aircraft but after 1945 the company returned to the business of transporting goods and passengers. During World War II Boeing and its partners worked together to produce a staggering 98965 aircraft including the famed B-17 Flying Fortress. The momentum from the war effort served to launch the company's tremendous postwar advances in aerospace technology as seen in this 1948 report which examines how to best stabilize planes caught in a gust of wind. <br/><br/><br/>The following reports are included in the archive: <br/><br/>1 California Institute of Technology.

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency JAXA 'National Research and Development Agency Aerospace Research and Development Organization' is the Japanese national air and space agency. Through the merger of three previously independent organizations JAXA was formed on 1 October 2003. JAXA is responsible for research technology development and launch of satellites into orbit and is involved in many more advanced missions such as asteroid exploration and possible human exploration of the Moon.2 Its motto is One JAXA and its corporate slogan is Explore to Realize formerly Reaching for the skies exploring space. Kib Japanese: 'Hope' also known as the Japanese Experiment Module JEM is a Japanese science module for the International Space Station ISS developed by JAXA. It is the largest single ISS module and is attached to the Harmony module. The first two pieces of the module were launched on Space Shuttle missions STS-123 and STS-124. The third and final components were launched on STS-127. NASA launched the JEM complex over three flights using the Space Shuttle. The shuttle had a large payload bay which carried the modules into orbit along with the crew. This is in contrast to the Russian modules which are launched into orbit on multistage Proton rockets and then rendezvous and dock with the station automatically. On 12 March 2007 the Experiment Logistics Module-Pressurized Section ELM-PS the main laboratory arrived at the Kennedy Space Center KSC from Japan. It was stored in the Space Station Processing Facility SSPF until launched into orbit aboard Endeavour on 11 March 2008 as part of the STS-123 mission. On 30 May 2003 the Pressurized Module PM arrived at KSC from Japan. It was stored at the SSPF until launched into orbit aboard Discovery on 31 May 2008 as part of the STS-124 mission. On 3 June 2008 the PM was attached to the Harmony module. At first the ELM-PS the small cargo bay was connected to a temporary location on Harmony and later on 6 June 2008 was moved to its final berthing location on top zenith of the main laboratory. The Exposed Facility EF and Experiment Logistics Module-External Section ELM-ES arrived at KSC on 24 September 2008. The two elements were launched on Endeavour on 15 July 2009 as part of the STS-127 mission. The ELM-ES was brought back to Earth at the end of the mission. The assembly of the EF was completed during the fifth spacewalk of the mission. JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) unknown
