Keesler AFB Open House

#1 Postby MGC » Mon Mar 29, 2004 10:28 pm

On April 24, 2004, Keesler Air Force Base in Biloxi, Mississippi will have an open house. This will be an excellent opertunity to visit with the Hurricane Hunters and tour their C-130J aircraft. This is the first open house in four years. I attended the last open house and spent some time with the hunters. I got to sit in the cockpit and had a pilot explain how he flys the aircraft into a hurricane. I also visited with a weather officer and she showed me how they do an dropsonde. This is a very interesting and informative event for any hurricane fanatic. I highly recommend this event, and who know perhaps one of you will have the luck of running into MGC...........MGC
