The two-man crew was picked for their light weight and warned to stay thin. The pilot doubles as observer, and the copilot does everything else, including aiming and setting the camera. Silva and G.E. engineers solved the transmitting problem by tacking a 3-ft.-long modified helical antenna on the whirlybird, setting...
