    Thank God when we took off the winds were right down the runway at about 50 kts.

    Farah LZ, AFG

    We had 3 different planes go in here in a 2 week span and they all cut tires. They (locals) say it was from the .50 cal shells on the LZ. My response was "remove all .50 cal shells and then there shouldn't be a problem." Don't know of any other problems after that.

    Brother, sounds a little too hairy for me!! Nice LZ, heard the -17's were coming in, but never saw it myself.
  10. Ahhh, Jack- known around here as "the nectar of the gods!!" If this happens, give me a heads-up. I live about 30 minutes from Lynchburg. We can start here and then move on down to the tour. My squadron buys a barrel or two of Single Barrell every year. You get well over 120 bottles per barrel and we sell it to squadron and wing members. All bottles have a medallion with picture of the herk and squadron/wing name. Jimmy Bedford, the head distiller signs every barrel. The first two ended up as a glass top table in the squadron bar. The last one was given to a visiting Belgian C-130 that came over and did some training/partying with us.
  11. I wasn't an E-4 Sgt, I was at the very end of that system. I had to wait just a little bit longer for promotion so I could go straight to SSgt.
  12. Absolutely incredible!! Great job!! God bless the and those that have given the ultimate sacrifice!
  13. Give me coordinates for this guys' house and we'll make sure he has something to complain about.
