So using zoomlogic I've got time in numerous warbirds and flew many missions performing in Airshows. I should be a writer LOL!!! See ya Chuck S Well I saw a DC3 crash. Can I count that as a mission?? Harry K If that were zoom he would say "HE survived a crash landing in a DC-3 and with absolute skill and resolve brought it in. Thereby saving a plane load of women ,Nuns and the vice President Oh!! and a couple of famous movie stars as well . In addition to fighting off attacks by terrorists armed with shoulder fired missles and controlling pitch by yelling at the passengers to run back and forth in the cabin... I'd say you could count it as a zoom style mission,certainly, he would and has:-) See ya Chuck (never flew in a DC-3 but I got 300 hrs watching them) S If I remember correctly I flew in a DC-3 from Fairbanks to Adak, Ak when I was in the Nav They told us of the DC-3's that crashed into the mountains at the end of the island trying to make it in. So I guess I must have been on many harrowing missions with near loss of life ;-) John "Will the last person leaving Adak please turn out the lights!" --sign in Adak passenger terminal circa 1975. Ouch, that brings on unpleasant memories; Spring 1956, batch of us scheduled from Anchorage to Shemya. One seat left so me and buddy drew. I won, he lost big time, next flight plowed in somewhere on the chain. Wonder if that isn't the one at ADAK. Harry K |
