I don't have any influence any more, not even much on SWMBO.
'Tried coupla months ago to get a B-52 flyby to commemorate crash of B-52,
near detonation of 2 nuclear weapons and loss of 3 crewmen near here 51
years ago. 'Had to apply to SECAF (Secretary of the Air Force) - turned
down flat - money, fuel, not big enough crowd/audience, etc. Forty five
years ago, I flew such a "mission" for a "crowd" of one - my mother, but
since the fool pilot, LtCol Holland, crashed "hot dogging" a B-52H at
Fairchild AFB, WA, in '94, and very high cost of fuel, etc., "things" have
changed.
Lotsa vehicle-hauling "training" flights to Middle East, BTW.

We need Wilton to call in some favours with the military. They must have a
transport plane big enough to haul a few MB's over.
They can just call it a training flight to a base out there.
