When you drop SAR swimmers it is called a "10 and 10", meaning 10 feet off the water and 10 knots forward air speed. That didn't work. But at least we were at an altitude I was willing to fall from.

This was at night.

The SH-60B, a wonderful piece of gear, has a max practical forward airspeed of about 140kts, so my options were limited.

Anyway. As I have said many times, I didn't get a massage at the Alien Orchids of Alien massage parlor with R. Kraft, but whatever was flying with me wasn't from this planet.

Mike musta got abuducted by a UFO cause we aint seen him around for a long while.
