I use a similar system. I have paper console tape on each drive and write the date last used on it and also keep a text file log of which drive and when. The backup batch file also writes a timestamp.txt to the root of…

I wrote a few games on the Spectrum and as with most of its hardware limitations we managed to squeeze quite a lot out of it. My memory is very hazy, it was well over 40 years ago, but I think keeping the timing under…
I understand there is an common fault where something, perhaps a capacitor, has failed over the years and if you plug it in something major gets fried. If you do get one, investigate that before attempting to power it…
They are very rare these days compared to the 1950s-80. I presume it's a combination of aircraft design developing and also the scale of the military and the intense training during the Cold War. Have a flick through…
The Avro Vulcan was similar, the two cockpit crew had ejector seats but the three others didn't. There were a few crashes where the cockpit crew ejected, this being one at London Heathrow.…
Apart from the command ejection in two seaters like this one, where depending on the configuration when one person ejects it triggers the other seat, I can only think of one automatic ejection and that is on the F35B as…
