- 05:29 @ColleenCoplick Thanks! I was so much younger then… Now we’re going into Season 7! Curb just keeps on rolling… #
- 07:27 Just arrived at March Air Force Base. Going up in a KC135 Stratotanker this morning to watch a midair refueling mission. #
- 07:47 The Air Force just invited me to Twitter and blog directly from the flight, so here goes. #
- 07:49 The amazing Stan Chambers is going up with us this morning. #
- 08:23 As expected, the Air Force is amazingly well organized. #
- 08:25 OK, so I’m actually flying in the massive C17 today. #
- 09:05 Turns out that the Air Force is in charge of all cyberspace for all the armed forces. #
- 09:06 About to go see a Predator and then tour the KC-135R. #
- 09:10 The delay time for control of the Predator between here and Afganistan is 1.6 seconds. #
- 09:13 The route for our flight today: twitpic.com/ldgy #
- 09:16 The safety talk has a lot of detail. Much more detail than on the airlines! #
- 09:24 Air Force Week info: airforceweek.com #
- 09:28 General Duignan is briefing us on the mission. #
- 09:51 The Air Force Honor Guard Drill Team is performing for us now. #
- 10:14 Just toured the KC135R tanker. Big gas station that flies. Holds 33,000 gallons (200,000 lbs) of fuel! #
- 10:36 Boarding the C17 now. #
- 14:36 OK, everybody can breathe now, we’re back on the ground. #
- 14:40 Since I had to turn off the iPhone, I wasn’t able to tweet during the flight, but lucky for you, I wrote out about 30 and will post soon! #
- 14:42 @buffi_gibbons I was there because my Air Force loves me! #
- 14:44 @gravitybelt It wasn’t so scary until they let me *fly* the C17, *then* it got scary! #
- 22:27 I know this is cheating, but tomorrow I’m going to post a whole mess of tweets that I did old-school (analog) while up in the C17 today. #
- 22:29 Overall, it was an amazing and awesome day, provided by the Air Force, for Air Force Week. Go check it out: airforceweek.com/ #
