@danw1955 Modelled, as in, calculated the angles and speed required, and then visualised with crude wire frame modelling. The ramps etc were then constructed based on the computer simulation results. Contrary to popular opinion, computers weren't primitive in the 70s. For example, I worked in seismic oil search in the 70s, and the Texas Instruments computers we were using converted seismic vibrations into models of rock strata underground to give a fairly accurate indication of where oil may be located, saving the cost of drilling countless test holes.

Fun fact: The barrel role in 'The Man With The Golden Gun' was the first movie stunt ever to be modelled on a computer before construction and implementation of the gag.
