One of the little known "bennies" is that with competent Air Force orders, you get to ride on military airplanes. In the last three years, I have ridden on KC-135s, C-130s, T-43s, and a C-118. Several of my cadets have ridden in a T-37. I am negotiating a ride in an F-16B for later this summer. Another way is if you are an accredited journalist. The public affairs offices of the Air Force have amazing powers to get rides for people. Good luck Jeff Williams ihnp4!cfiaime
