So many years back, brand new F/E on the 707 (freighter as it were) had to operate the ‘hammer’ on a hammer start (JT3D’s) in the middle of the night with 2 newbie pilots - a/c ‘new’ to company. Learned about the start in classroom - ‘you can use a tool to open the start valve....’ Man, an eye opener for me......

Thanks to all and Happy Holidays.
So were you also familiar with the, ahem, tools, used to reset the infamous JT3's T/R's......that could be fun !
