/wave from McConnell AFB, Ks

The probe is an easy retrofit or mod to an existing airframe. But, it takes a bit more skill on the part of the receiver to make the hookup, because if the bow wave off the probe doesn't push the basket, the turbulence from the basket pushes the receiver. Having the probe coming straight out our nose meant that we got pushed all over the place right before contact.

Having the probe between two engines sounds like a good way to cut a hose off, doesn't it? And, a 130 is not the most maneuverable beast in the air. I suspect it might be REALLY tricky to make that hookup.
