A long time ago when I was a peon army pilot, my platoon was in vegas, so I took a picture of Trump tower. Unfortunately it was a sad and loose formation because we had been flying many hours and were tired. A hot sounding tower chick told us to "fly over the interstate" for downwind, but we went down the strip at rooftop level. She yelled at our flight lead, but we didn't get in trouble. A local news channel had video of us going down the strip on the evening news that night. Attached File |

Nice. The MAFFs deployments were always fun. |
