Big white "L" shape painted on road?

Wore a lot of hats in the company over the years. Photo-lab, plotting, surveying, but I was mostly the pilot and I am glad we were small nuff that I could do all the other stuff and also keep the pilot spot.

I never did any color work as at the time, we have few customers that would pay the freight on it except for the Gov. and they just wanted the film and processed it themselves.

Remember the quality jump when the moving platens came out?

Did you or do you ever print on a product called Dupont Cronapaque™? Heavy plasticized stuff in big rolls that we used for some real kick ass B/W enlargements.

Does your company have it’s own planes and plotting departments?

Just curious, I have been retired for about 7 years so I’m a little behind the curve now.

Never heard of the materials you mention.
Or moving platens.
We’re a State lab, & do have our own planes & plotters.
The camera in the aircraft has GPS, & I’ve tried to stay away from it, as the computer doesn’t work worth a damn, & I’m worried about the aircrafts’ maintainence.

Know anybody still in the field?
It’s hard to network from the darkroom, & I’d like to keep my options open.

Well, my old company is getting away from the photo-lab end. sorry. They are bigger in the digital stuff now I hear.

I was lucky, my boss was willing to keep the bird safe.

Our latest camera had a motion compensating platen and gyro stabilization. It is now hooked to GPS firing now also. Maybe more goodies and stuff since I left.
