One of many aircraft handling films produced during WWII, this movie provides ground and flight crews with vital information for the care of the Boeing B-29 Superfortress. Topics covered include taxiing, towing, mooring, handling of brakes, securing of the aircraft including covering of pitot tubes and air scoop covers, inspection, use of a tug and tow bar, closing of cowl flaps and securing of the electrical system including batteries, and more.
Starting at 21:17 is a second film, although this one is incomplete, about the idle adjustment of the Ceco Carburetor to maintain engine performance.
