    The French air traffic controllers all went on strike, and I am now stuck on Lajes AFB (an island in the Atlantic Ocean). We are on our way to support a MEU, and we can't get there because we can't get clearance to fly over France. I've never liked France, and this is just another reason added to that list :mad:
    (Also, we were going to stop in Italy and have a down day, and Italy is freakin awesome! Lajes, not so much:rolleyes:)

    "Bunch of land burning communists"

    Air France almost made me miss my flight home once because they decided to shake me down over my parents buying me a ticket on an employee discount.
