Description

General Electric High Voltage Lightning Laboratory Bosun Chair

Use

It's not as scary with Vona sitting in it, but this is the chair used with an overhead hoist to make adjustments to the 3 MeV Marx Impulse Generator, up to 50 feet in the air. (That part is scary...even with a 1939 seat belt...)

Context

Part of the General Electric High Voltage Lightning Laboratory acquisition
