Props & Wings

A couple of weekends ago Ryan's unit had a family day.  His unit has some unique aircraft (to name a few: MI-17 a Russian helicopter, a UH-1 Huey helicopter and an AC-130 Gunship) and there was actually an opportunity for spouses to take a flight.  I am too much of a nervous flyer to have taken advantage of this fabulous opportunity.  But, we did go later in the day to give the boys a chance to climb into the cockpits.  Being on the flightline was exciting!  There were planes taking off and landing all around us. 

A spouse from Ryan's unit took the family picture of us in front of one of Ryan's favorite aircraft, AC-130 Gunship.






The boy's and their 'guns.'
