Digging through some old stuff, pictures from 2000 when I was in the Air Force and deployed to The Magic Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ...

I did a story for the base newspaper on U2 landings ... a U2 pilot drove a Camaro behind a U2 during landings and communicated with the pilot so he didn't scrape the wings on the ground. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I got to ride shotgun in the Camaro during one landing.

I'm guessing since there are no Z28 emblems that it's a B4C? Would make sense since it was a government vehicle. The first two #s on the license plate is the year of the car (most GOVs are this way).

No Z28 badging = B4C.

Pat,

Cool pics! Was it at Prince Sultan? My son was there for quite awhile.

Were you AFN?

Prince Sultan


Does anyone else find this name a little redundant?
