Trip 014, Winter 2013, Massachusetts
285/286/287 - Took a ride up to Nantucket. Fancy place fer sure. Had some clam chowder.
288/289 - Fill ‘er up Friday. Stackin’ banks while drainin’ tanks. Fuel was over 9 bucks a gallon here.
290 - Ready to ride!
Trip 015, Winter 2013, Germany
291 – New trip, “New jet.” First outing with Dover’s latest toy. It’s a hand-me-down 2001 model from McChord AFB. Of course they aren’t going to give us the best jet they have, nor would I expect them to. Notice the patched over lettering below the tail number. Not a bad jet per-say, but it doesn’t have all the upgrades our 2007 model jets have.
292 – Preflight passed, let’s roll out!
293 – Beautiful morning.
294 – Kickin’ back on the top of the world.
295 – First gas stop and load up.
296 – As soon as I was planning this picture, "Chief, number three doesn't want to start." One Bosch spark plug change and she's good to go. Y ou can see the engine start light in the flightdeck shinin'.

Trip 016, Winter, Hawaii
297 - "Can you handle a trip to Hawaii?" Sure can!
298 - Almost tough to leave snow and cold behind, but service before self...
299 – Miles high and headin’ west.
300 - Tap the Rockies...
301 – Damn.
302 – Let’s just skip right over that crazy left coast.
303 - 757s have actually the same motors we do with a lil less horsepower and a lack of TR's, but lots skinnier and lighter airframe lets em blow right past us at speed. Also only half of the same motors we have, and she flew on by.
304 – Didn't know it rained in Hawaii.
305 – Nifty manmade runway out in the water that we’ll see later.
306 - Time for tourist pictures.
307 - If this is the "crappy" on base hotel, what does downtown look like?
308/310 - That ain't no pine tree...
311 – Local map.
312 – Days later, Obama is done with his Christmas vacation, let’s roll home.
313 - Taxiway and runway out on the water.
314 - Good safety racm.
315 - Positive rate gear up.
316 - Getting paid to go on vacation.
(post break)
317/320 - Getting paid to go on vacation.
321 - Hell yeah Hawaii was fun, but gotta love goin' home to play with snow.
