In using the disconnect lanyard, it doesn't seem to work properly. What is the proper procedure and angle of pull for the release mechanism on the trolley?

To disengage trolley pull firmly down on the emergency release cord (red cord with knob). More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
