This picture can be estimated to date back to 1944 based on the front line shown on the poster in the background. At the time the picture was taken in October, the next major loss of territory on the Wehrmacht side to the Red Army was imminent. In June, the Heeresgruppe Mitte had been destroyed by the Soviet Union in the most costly battle in German history. The propagandistic tone on the reverse side of the picture is therefore even sharper, with slogans of perseverance and praising German strength. Meanwhile, the workers in the picture are splicing cables for aircraft flight controls. Stock Photo

Engine failure of the F-106 Pratt & Whitney J-75 was thankfully very rare. In the unfortunate case of engine failure hydraulic pressure for the flight controls was lost (if windmilling the engine provided some pressure). Extending the RAT (Ram Air Turbine) restored pressure to fly the aircraft. Should an actual flame-out landing be attempted the RAT was mandatory for enough pressure to flare. RAT was actuated by handle on left console of cockpit. High pressure air extended the turbine and locked it in place. The RAT was extended during preflight and closed by the pilot during walk around.
