  3. Great day!
    The airpark inside the gate has ships in need of some TLC. The weather is a major issue. The summer especially.
    The Century Circle birds are well cared for. I may look into volunteering from time to time. It would be as close to a Structural Mechanic job as possible. Crew Chief/Plane Captain stuff is not what my real forte' is.
    Cool story.
    Armed Forces Day of 1962 at Glasgow AFB, we had just got out of the car when a Voodoo two ship took off. I full A/B! Scared my Mom to no end. I was 7 and 1/2 and thought it was so cool!!!!!!
