When driving by Travis Air Force Base often they are practicing take offs and landings. They circle around and pass over Hwy 12, so you see drivers slowing down or pacing themselves in order to catch a good view of them flying overhead. Our normally calm Rottweiler loves to bark at the aircraft coming and going....she is mesmerized by them too. Anyway, RRRA....great story about the Capt. Thanks for sharing it.

I don't know why. But I have always had this vibe if someone hit you from behind too hard. You could get pushed into the water. It isn't based on logic...lol...those rails are high. Just the set up of the two lanes, the railing right next to you, and no where else to go if nailed from behind and were cars stopped in front of you.

Sometimes, it just helps to know that there are people out there who really care abt helping people because it's the right ting to do. And who do things even if they end up with big ol' blisters as a result. Happy to do so, Tammy.

It seems as though they take forever to reach altitude. That being said, they are great planes, with few mishaps and ruggedly built. I’m actually surprised that it can get off the ground.

They have to use a survey crew because the thing lands and idles on ice...it's so heavy, it sinks into the ice. When it sinks too far, they move up a bit....amazing.
