A Busy Time

Well, after my US Air Force Tanker flight, things got busy. At the end of September, I was able to fly with the Marines twice during the WTI's in Yuma, AZ. First day was on a C-130 where I had a F/A-18 from VMFA-323, the Death Rattlers come up for a refueling and then the next day, I spent flying around with a CH-53 delivering artillery pieces to Marines and then watching them fire off the rounds.

 

In early October, the Miramar Airshow was back, while a smaller show was store due to the sequestration still being in effect. it was still a good show.

 

 

 

Then in late October, something that I've been waiting for approx. 1 year for.

To fly on the last Marine Corps active duty CH-46's., and this happen with the Purple Foxes HMM-364, now known as VMM-364, since they are getting Ospreys. I spent twos days with these great Marines, as flew from Camp Pendleton to Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson, and delivered one bird to the Bone Yard,  and then back to Pendleton the next day.
