Hello Fellow Edgegamers:

I was at O'Hare Airport the other day talking to my Co-Pilot (Who happens to be a retired Air Force Pilot) and we were talking about the KC-130's (The big air - air refuelers for military jets). So I was talking to him, and he had asked me "Would you like to fly from Peoria, Illinois, to Cape Canaveral, Florida in a KC-130 on July 21st?" I sad, Yes!!!! So, I am going to leave from Peoria on July 21st, and get down there, sleep over on a hotel off base at night on the 21st, and the 22nd and come back to Chicago on the 23rd. Just thought I'd bring that up :).

Thanks:

Ya, Definitely, or hopefully I can :). But, I will be taking a lot of pictures. They are going to actually refuel f16's and a couple other military aircraft in-air.
 
Oh I would be taking a Military VIP tour of the air base there, and I am going to get to see NASA's launch pad and some smart - as - hell Astronauts!!
 
Dude that is like one of a pilot's dreams. Totally awesome.

I would think a pilot's dream would be to fly in the SR-71 Blackbird... I mean, 2200 MPH at around 80,000 feet? Who wouldn't love to do that!?!?
 
Very cool, have a great time!

I'd prefer an F-22 Raptor or B-52 Stratofortress, but that's just me ;)
 
i honestly would just enjoy to fly any plane right now.

But, good. im excited for you. In which exact ways, im unsure, but i am still excited
