Was there any ever need to test the weapons systems on the Air Display Variant?Wheels On Ground switch which was renamed Weight On Wheels switch. Pull circuit breaker 232 on an ADV and you can override it.
Exactly. Fighter puff.Was there any ever need to test the weapons systems on the Air Display Variant?
Sounds like a fuck on. I’d want to know I could just press a button and wipe out Washington, for example.
I suppose it "could" have been an accident. But to arm and fire a rocket isn't just a one button procedure.
Bet the driver had venison for tea!

Happened in Denmark in the eighties, but the missile hit some summer cottages on land. Noone were hurtThis happened in Copenhagen some years back iirc. A missile was accidently let loose from a warship and it destroyed a nightclub. Don't know the full details but they will be out there somewhere.
Shame, Herman's Hermits were never the same without him...Happened in Denmark in the eighties, but the missile hit some summer cottages on land. Noone were hurt
Cyclists fault.This was in the news just this week.
Lots of time testing the radar though that was also blocked by WOW.Was there any ever need to test the weapons systems on the Air Display Variant?
Happen on the USS Forrestal, but in this case it was a cannon. Would have thought it would have been unloaded.I havent got a clue but surely you can't accidentally set a rocket off???
Guns just don't go off by themselves.
I'm not sure on the Belgian Air Firce procedures but wouldn't normally put an armed aricraft into a hangar. Then there would be several interlocks to prevent weapons being discharged on the ground, these usually being if the aircraft is on the ground there would be a microswitch on the undercarriage stopping it (which can be over ridden, usually by fitting a tool or selecting a switch in the vicinity of it), there would also be a master safety switch for the weapons to be selected to live, as well as a late arm switch. If all of these conditions were met, and someone selected the gun and pulled the trigger then the gun would fire.
My best guess at what has happened is that they were testing the gun which they thought had been downloaded when it hadn't, which someone will be in the shit for.
Cyclists' fault. The deer obviously recognised them as human and therefore a threat, whereas they don't recognise cars as human until you get out of them.This was in the news just this week.
