NZFF

Isnt it odd , i was looking through my hanger and saw the Herc (J-30) and my dream from last night came back . Anyway , i was at Edwards , captain of a C-130 tasked with flying Rob/TopRob to Fiji (its a dream ok) somebody , not sure who, told me he was late. Which in the dream was ok because i couldn't get #1 started .... end of dream. Very strange indeed.
I think i sim too much and before you ask , no wine was involved .... none of that until the old man is home.

Way cool, Marty.
I think you've been talking to one of my ex-wives, they all insist that I'm not very punctual, but that was the old me.
I swear that if anyone arranges a Herc to fly me to Fiji, I'll be on time!

Sounds like an idea for an NZFF get-together... it's been a long, long time since I went to Fiji, I think I was in my early 20's, went with a few mates, I do recall a brief fling with a Japanese girl.... Those were the days.

Gosh my mind is wondering off to Fiji, Japanese girls and Hercules........

Nah , its a great place Ian. I was up there years ago ( you have the pics ) on a P-3 supporting the princess royal (she was on an Andover ... poor thing) As i recall , the Orion "broke down" and we had to stay there for another 2 or 3 days , until a herc came up with some spare parts , i think it was a TIT gauge for # 3 . It was hard , but we did it
