This illustration shows how a dummy would be situated in the T-2 test cell of the Arnold Engineering Development Center Engine Test Facility for pilot clothing and equipment testing conducted in 1957. In June of that year, wind blast testing was performed in the tunnel to assess the impact of dynamic pressure on several configurations of flight gear. (U.S. Air Force image)
