44" Eagle 1 accessories - Grab Arm

Back to Eagle 1
During the 2nd season of Space 1999 the Grab Arm was occasionally used for collecting space items or refueling other Eagles.

Mostly built from brass tubing although the two big horizontal pipes on the left are steel - or have steel inside them. The top grab pivots up and down by pulling on a control wire. The unit simply drops into a hole drilled into the Eagle shoulder pod.

The grab-arm appeared in the second season episodes The Exiles, Space Warp and The Rules of Luton.
