J-79 Engine
In the 1970s, the J-79 engine was my baby for test software maintenance and development of fuel control tests via the Automated Test System for Jet Engine Accessories, ATSJEA. BIG fun!
J-79 Engine Test with Afterburner
The big roar of higher power settings starts at about 6:00, and the afterburner (Brit. “reheater”) lights up shortly after 7:00. It’s not quite as impressive as the F-111’s TF-30 zoned afterburner, but it’ll get your attention!
Fuel Control Test Stand, similar to ATSJEA
Old home week!
