“Hell yeah I like flyin’ with Fargo. We’re sure not gonna break…”
“Damn it Ben! Don’t put that evil on me.”
Lets ride boss!
“Clear left.”
“Reach 430; traffic 11 o’clock; Turn heading two seven oh.”
Muggy DC Beltway.
An old Dover friend before switched to New Jersey, “I remember when you were mine…”
Well, this trip was labeled a fail, as the Spoiler Control Electronic Flap Computer decided it didn’t want to play anymore. No Control-Alt-Delete was going to bring a fried power supply back from the dead. Had to sit at Andrews waiting for the backup airplane to bring me one, then watch it take the cargo we were going to haul. Thus, continues the legend of 61sick6. Oh well, can’t win them all.
Wait a minute. It was the loadmaster that jinxed this trip saying nothing will break. You get to sit in time out now!

Re: Pictures while using frequent flyer miles
Easy day moving stuff around the DelMarVa peninsula. Comin’ in low around Quantico saw a big ole nice house on a private spot. “Hey Cap’m, put that shadow right over the swimming pool.”
Marine executive transport.
Well hello little new friend. Expensive F-35C
There you guys are. One of a few things that fly slower than we do.
“Gas it up chief, we gotta go!”
Nasa’s Wallops Island rocket test facility.
M surf fishin’ spot 3R’s @ Dewey Beach. Can’t wait for next summer to head on down.

Re: Pictures while using frequent flyer miles
Next up is a longer than normal photoset, but crossed three countries off the list with a two week trip to Singapore, Vietnam (North and South), and the Philippines. Also hit up Hawaii on the way back home. Great time had by all, so roll those photos!
Taking a few airplanes, so good to have a partner I've worked with before to have all the help I can get.
Biggest part of a great trip is having a great crew.
Had so many people onboard, an extra loadmaster had to crowd my spot where I normally can stretch out. “Shouldn’t you be downstairs saying, “Check completed.” Or something?”
North to Alaska for a front end crew change. No time limits for crew chiefs or security though, so it’s gonna be a 32 hour 4 stop trip in total by the time I get in a bed.
35 hours later after waking up and starting a half a world away, arrived to a kickass nice room at a hotel in Singapore.
Dinner time!
Rooftop pool.
Fancy room.
Fancy bathroom.
This one is actually out of order from later on in Vietnam, but still looked cool.

Re: Pictures while using frequent flyer miles
Going up.
Asked the taxi lady to take us hammer down big time to somewhere cool. She had quite the gadget setup.
We were dropped off at the Marina Bay Sands casino. One of my security guys got a little too excited about it.
“Where does this elevator go?” “It goes up.”
Rooftop views of Bayfront Subzone, Downtown Core, Singapore.

Re: Pictures while using frequent flyer miles
Lunch time.
I forgot my swimmin’ shorts, but wanted to use the rooftop pool. While we were exploring the Marina Bay Sands casino, I sent my partner FCC that was afraid of heights to get me a pair from the mall. Great color choice. Thanks. A lot.
Oh well, the pool is nice.
Well Singapore, it has been nice, but we are loaded up and ready to ride. The loadmaster has CCR cued up to play on the PA system, because next stop VIETNAM!!!

Comin’ in hot to Vietnam like a wild weasel.
Fire services.
Look at that sexy new piece of Boeing. The flag at the top of the tail made me double take.
“Quick, lock the door, and then maybe he’ll go away.”
“This is the real deal boys, we ain’t in Kansas anymore.”

Hippies everywhere.
Looked important.
Hotdog holding on.
Building looked different than all the others.
Taxi driver was very helpful and friendly.
Fancy hotel. Prolly in the top ten I’ve ever stayed at.
