From the Usual USAF Source. I rarely see those Ospreys, either overhead or on the ramp when I go out to the base. The C-130s are a different story, though... they always seem to be orbiting over P-Ville, especially at night. "The sound of freedom!"
Pretty!
ReplyDeleteThey're flying every afternoon out of Kirtland. 2 birds at a time. I guess they were tired of sitting on the runway for the last year. I love watching any air traffic come out of the base since it's pretty infrequent.
ReplyDeleteWhat? You mean the Raptors don't fly a lot?
