Consolidated Alien character generation?

Fritz,

Where did you learn PLFs? IIRC, from my ejection seat training (only crazy people jump out of perfectly good airplanes:)), we only had 3 contact points in a properly done PLF: feet, thigh, shoulder. An improperly done one only had three as well, depending on direction: feet, knees, face or feet, keister, head.
At the US Army Airborne School, Ft. Benning, GA, 1983. WRT the different techniques - well, you certainly weren't jumping with anywhere near the same load of gear we were. As for crazy or not - well, I volunteered to jump out of planes before having ever flown in one. Make of that what you will. :D

Back on-topic: I believe there actually is a JTAS index around somewhere (perhaps in my reprint volumes, I'll be checking) but I don't think there's a comprehensive index of everything from CT. I guess that would be a concordnance, anyway. A project for someone with more time than I've got!
