Is anyone familiar enough with the Naval Aviation News archives to dig out
the "And Then There Were None" story from many years ago? It's a classic
documentary of a hurrevac from Texas.

It is SOP for the Navy to have a Hurievac plan. In Whidbey we had one for
volcanos after Mt. St Helens. Any plane that can be flown is flown out of
the
expected footprint of the incoming storm. It makes for some fun and
interisting
cross countrys as well as concern as you leve your loved ones behind.
In the 50's my dad was Aircraft commander on a Connie he did a Hurievac to
Nashville TN not unusual but he left from Barbers Point, HI. The reason
why is
that that is were his parents lived, he was very popular with the rest of
the
crew as he dropped them off as he came across the US for a few days of
RnR. He
was back in a week.
