Speaking of film, in the freezer I just (re)discovered 23 sheets of 5x7 
Plus-X that I exposed in 1973 using a government surplus Fairchild F56 
aerial camera.
This had a (non-focusing) 20" lens, and an adapter to take sheet film in 
place of the 9" rolls usually used.  I had to go up on buildings or hills to 
be able to
make use of the infinity focus.  In '73 I processed two sheets to get an 
idea of how the camera was working, but never got around to developing
the rest.  Maybe I can get motivated and do a few sheets a month.     Or 
not.   ;~)
