To real question is: what kinds of "people" are we bringing out?

Loads now are very light on the AMCITS.

Theyre still being told that security can not be guaranteed to the airport.


Total clown show.

Probably all that we will use unless they elect to put a few "ancient" 330s into the mix. Perfect mission for the "expendable" aircraft. Wonder if the CRAF rotations come with 26 hour duty days like MAC/AMC love?? Gotta do something for that HFP/CZTE. Ohhhh riiiiiiggghhht. 🙄😁🤣🤣

Can you put JATO on a 767? I wouldn't do it for triple GS?
