A few late GFIs. As I recall this was Ted Martin (AAV537), me (AAV580), Sergio Sanchez (AAV742), and Wayne Pierce (AAV783).

Looking across at another MD-80 from my cockpit.

Somewhere in Texas, I had an equipment failure. I jumped back in at New Orleans in a little different a/c.

"Hey guys. I think there are thunder boomers in the area," I quipped over the Mobile airport.

Where's that umbrella when you need it!

I may not have gotten credit for the flight, but it was still fun.

Milviz T38 available through Flight 1. It is excellent but not easy to fly well. Things happen REAL fast in this airplane.
