Saw 737's coming into Taran Kowt, they seemed to do all right. Normal landings in a Herk, no, assault landings? No problem.

The news says they can't fly it out of there...when I flew Lears, we'd need to be very light in order to get out of a 3,700' field. The USAF required we had at least 4,500', however, so it was a moot point.
