So how exactly does that go down? What if you're the SDO that day?

"G'morning. I'm SECDEF's aide/EA/whatever. We're going to need alternate transportation for the Secretary and we're hoping you can help..."

"One sec, sir. Let me get the Skipper..."

Base Ops O calls the Squadron Ops O and starts the conversation with "trust me, this is not my idea..."

Shortly after, Skippers are calling each other....

The first class seats behind the flight station are pretty legit. As far as good for pilots taking naps while ONSTA, obviously being a double anchor type I don't get that luxury, but I've seen that unless you're a midget then they are not as good as the racks on the P-3. Of course, if I repo a plane on deployment, I'm seriously considering bringing an air mattress for trip over. There is so much room for activities.

Oh the stories I could tell. I have walked the fine line in the 3710 many times. Hey, throw on just one pilot who needs a landing to maintain currency and it becomes a pilot training event, right? Nevermind that we flew to the coast and dropped someone wearing silver eagles on that training event.

Very economical use of the aircraft, I'm sure...

How long before we see some of the early P-8 airframes actually converted to UP-8s? ;)
