2020 Lunchtable Meet MOAB, UT

My uncle is retired Air Force. He imported these 600 pound pair of hand carved doors from the Philippines when he retired on a C-130.

 

My dad used to load up his 68 Chevelle SS and fly from Edwards AFB to Reno for the weekend. I have a picture somewhere of him and the car all strapped down.

I really want a C130 for a trailer rig.

 

You're kidding me. That's a hell of a benefit.

That's just so funny putting your personal car on a god damn military aircraft just to take it out for the weekend.

 

C130 rollin down the strip

Lunch table thread gonna take a little trip

(Fuck now I want to go on a motto run)

 

That's fucking badass!

 

That thing looks light and fun as hell! I'd wager there are some amazing places to go riding there

 

Still learning on it. Been riding trails for a long time, and used to ride bicycle trials back in college, but this is my latest toy to take up space in the shop.

 

So wait, does one of you have a C130 we're carpooling in?

 

IG really frowns on that now.

 

lol yeah, this is back in the 80s... sigh, I am getting to be an old man.

However, I know flight crew still gets away with stuff from time to time.

 

Having a few AFSOC airlift friends, I assure you there are some shenanigans afoot.

 

It's always the shady ass Flight Engineers when they hit the IDGAF E-6 stage of their career. Salty AF.

 

Agreed. helo crew chiefs as well.

 

I put in my request for vacation time for 10-14-2020 through 10-21-2020

Not approved yet but no reason why I shouldn't be; haven't taken a vacation in 2 years.

@eon_blue
@BartMaster1234
@jbrandt

and anyone else in CA; caravan possibly?

 

Depending on the date I might be in. I already have a week off the weekend before for a wedding in Cali. I live in grand junction co and feel I might be sick the 16-18.

 

Sure

 

Yeah, I'm in.

I'll need to make it back on at least the 20th though. I've been told that if I'm not here by my daughter's birthday (the 21st), well, let's just say she showed me the knife, lol

 

So we gunna warm up of Fin N Things, or just go straight into BFE?

 

@Kwikvette Im probably gonna pull the trigger on some plane tickets next paycheck. Guess we need to nail out a campsite next.

 

When’s this happening? My trip got cancelled earlier this year and wouldn’t mind going
