Hi.
Both my brother and me have flown MACs. I’m not going into the particulars on MAC flights, but my brother was on a KC 135 one day/night.
Coming from AK, somewhere over OK, the pilot had a flame out in one engine. My brother was sitting in the engineer’s seat. Brother went, ut oh. Pilot said no problem. Coming over FL towards Homestead AFB, pilot says feather two. Brother goes, oh shit.
My brother had some anxiety, probably pissed his pants.
Landed safely.
Is Homestead AFB still there?
5.56mm
Yep, it is a F-16 Reserve AFB.
