Since we’re back in that mess again…

Detachment flight schedules sometimes got interesting…

Det flight sked

Jeddah more so than most… Stuck off in the far right corner of the airport, you never knew who or what might show up in the middle of the night…

Dets tended, over the years, to be ‘interesting’ regardless of when/where one ended up. They ranged from one crew/one airplane, to 6-7 airplanes from multiple locations with minimal support, basically whatever could be scrounged at that particular location. Air Force C-130s were always a good source of parts for the P-3s, as we had the same engines… Just the 130s had theirs upside down! 🙂
