ANY flying job in the military was that way! Talk about big boy ****!!!!!! Who GETS to do such cool **** and get paid to do it?? Where else can one even go to get to do such cool ****! I dug every minute of my flying career. Long days sucked sometimes but that was a small price to pay.

The Pod carried camera data
