Alaska, land of beautiful nature, millions of gallons oil. The 80s was actively pumping fuel from the Northslope of Alaska to Valdez where ships would bring the oil to the States to refine it. In 1982 Sohio Oil hired Columbia helicopters to test an idea out, pull a barge, The purpose of this test was to evaluate the ability of a helicopter - the Boeing Vertol 107-II - to tow a fully-loaded hover barge over water, snow and ice and see if it could be potentially useful.
The test began in Prudhoe Bay on June 17. The Vertol’s 600-foot long line was connected to hover barge ACT-100, jointly owned by Global Marine Development and VECO. Air blowers on the 170-ton barge forced a cushion of air under the barge, which was kept in place by rubberized skirt material. This first test was run around Prudhoe Bay with an empty barge, and was successful. During this and subsequent tests, the aircraft often flew with a nose-down angle approaching 25 degrees. Next, ACT-100 was loaded with 40 tons of cargo for another close-in test run. Once more, the helicopter showed it could move the barge despite the additional weight. The final aspect of the test was to tow the hover barge over a 50-mile course to a drill site named Alaska Island where Sohio had just completed an oil well. During the tow to the island, headwinds over 30 knots were encountered, and snow and ice buildup were also factors. Regardless, the Vertol was able to bring the empty barge to the island successfully. On the return trip to Prudhoe Bay, when this photo was taken, the barge carried 50 tons of cargo, bringing the total weight to 220 tons. As with the previous tests, this task was accomplished successfully. This photograph is one of longtime Columbia Helicopters’ photographer Ted Veal’s most famous photographs.
I’d like to know who the pilot was…

The med community stopped washing any wounds with H2O2 a long time ago.

Short of it, it causes issues with the tissues and delays healing.

Soap (just good soap, not antiobiotic) and lots of clean water is the best for cleaning wounds.

An amputated and degloved leg from a crush with the rocky mountains as the anvil got 12L of washout.
Then 9L more 2 days later.
And IV antibiotics of course.

I dont use 3x antibiotic cream on cuts unless they show sign of infection.
But what do I know?🤷‍♂️
Even nasty nasty contamination.
Wash wash wash.
If its contaminated and bad enough it needs stitches, they will likely put a person on some Keflex.
I recently was told by some doc on Teledoc to not use Neosporin on my infected cuticle. She said it actually holds bacteria in 🤷🏼‍♂️

I still believe in HP as a disinfectant but I understand it hurts good tissue too.

I need a big bottle of Iodine, maybe that red stain is a warning to bacteria looking a new home 🤠

I might have a bottle of Satan's Spit somewhere around here. If anyone remembers this stuff, then we can be friends.

Because your life would be so much better if this truck was in it.

Hemingway wrote, erroneously, that hyenas were hermaphrodite. Females are born with and do pack 'fake' dicks.

Hyenas aren't wild dogs or even related to canines but come from the weasel family, it's nearest relative is the mongoose.
And they give birth out of those dicks. Its a crazy, demonic animal IMO.

 
Rumor has it that the pitch of the helicopter was actually caused by his huge clanging balls .....
No doubt! Probably just got tired of making corrections to the helo and found out the pitch actually helped. I know a few helicopter pilots who flew for Columbia, one in particular who’s a bit of a legend that I never got the FULL story on from his brother-he mostly just does Hollywood stuff any more. Pretty sure that era is when he was just getting started though.

They have a sophisticated clan hiarchy, with an alpha female being the clan leader. Her offspring are treated as royalty and a female would most likely become a clan leader.

If her mother clan leader is killed, however, it's usually usually catastrophic for the daughter and the heiress loses all social standing, usually treated as an outcast and either attacked and killed by others or driven out of the clan.

Imagine if they were here in North America. Farmers would be offering their virgin daughters to skilled coyote hunters to eradicate them.
