[GreenKeys] Model 31

[Don Robert House]

There was one installed in the Raven's position in an RB-47 I sat in  
at Kindley AFB in Bermuda.  It was also equipped with GE designed J-47  
engines built by the Packard Motor Car Company.  The year was 1965.   
It looked (like the MITEs in our P3As) like it had not been used in a  
long time.

I pulled a manual out of my files this morning cause i was wondering  
what it was all about.  It sez "U.S. Air Navigational Aids" (A brief  
Description), Oct. 7-26, 1946.

Quite shocked to see on page 43 a description of "Radio Teletype  
Ground-to-Plane and Plane-to-ground"

Teletype Corp. Model 31 Send-receive teletypewriter, Tape Printer with  
Sending Keyboard.  Height 10 1/2, Width 10 and Depth 13 1/2 with a  
weight of 24 lb..

The information on it was presented to the gummit by Western Electric  
Company.  Didn't realize it was in service back then and wonder if it  
ever was extensively used.
