I am trying to figure out if it had any role to play in the version Leach developed for the Apollo command module in 1968. I am guessing not, but curious if the "LCW-194" stamp means anything. From tags on the side, this unit has a 1965 date faintly stamped, and a NAA for North American Aviation. The front has Thermolab LCW-194-1 and 2 stamped on it; not sure what that was for. The most telling clue is on the white sticker, front center, with "F-100 Engine Test" for the supersonic jet fighter and then "T-28 (something) Test." These were aircraft built by NAA, and I am guessing this was ground support equipment, given the portability feature. Metal tag on right side:  Control Labels:  |
