Satan's Angel's pilot Bill Hanning poses for the camera
in the Philippines, circa late 1944.
Note the heavy duty retaining harness. This was three-point
harness which the pilot buckled at the waist with a retainer lever.
Such harnesses saved many lives, especially in crash landings where
the G forces of returning a Lightning to earth with retracted gear were
considerable !
