we did some machining on wing flap actuators for them in my past aerospace life. had my clearance to go onto flight line at nellis and holloman a.f.b..
WHAT A GAS !
was able to go right up to the YELLOW LINE OF DOOM AND DEATH that K-9 HANDLER GUARDED! tech sgt. briefed us if we stepped across that line either the big mean nasty ugly K-9 was going to eat us alive or the guard was going to shoot our ass w/either a M-9 or his M-16! no screwing around!
used to go to end of holloman a.f.b. runway and watch sorties take off.
one of the coolest projects i was ever on.
sounds cliche but it made me proud to be an american.
plus the fact i didnt want to be the bad guys and have that damn thing chasing me down!
