I don't think they stay oriented either. They have to drop out straight as
the ALCMs have expanding winglets that fold out and their flight path isn't
a drop, it flies forward after clearing the bottom of the plane.
IIRC the pylon launcher on the wings of the B-52 have them angled, but not
too far from straight down either.

As long as the bogies are snapped in and sliding doors on boxcars won't fall off, use internal magnets or clamps (...) (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
