When those guns went off, it shook the whole building, needless to say I bailed out of the head, pants flapping around my knees to the ultimate amusement of the four civilian contractors who had asked the tower to request the pilot let off rounds over the shack. It was a gag they tried to pull on most contractors who came to do work there. It is an impressive sight and sound though. I really enjoyed working there. 
At least they didn't send you in search of 12 feet of flight line - - or batteries for the CG-U-11....
