5/5 stars. The ability to elevate several tons of metal that doesn't want to leave the ground is astounding. They really do be flying.

I live across the river from the fuel docket. Every time there is a blip in the power an alarm sounds for HOURS. Last week 13 hours. EIGHT HOURS sor far today. Whem we call the answer we get is " that is the loss of power alarm No one is here to reset it". I ask why you can not silence the alarm with the acknowledge button? They cant This is poor command.

I wanted to share that I served as an Avionics Specialist in 1968 and remain proud of every moment I served. I continue to Honor All who passed in Vietnam from my San Diego Platoon

Before you go watch The Great Santini starring Duvall, Blythe Danner, and Tim Hutton. Great destination, must like water, the smell of Spanish Moss, and tolerate heat and humidity.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Thank you for your service. There are no tours aboard the Air Station unfortunately. Unless you have a retired or DOD Id there would be no access. The O club is available for authorized patrons. So if you were granted access to base you could eat lunch.
