They only let me change the tires, refill the oxygen containers, put in gas (JP4) and dig out the AK47 slugs from the bottom of the aircraft.

I use to open the 20mm blue tip rounds and take the powder and set it on fire. At night it would light up the entire flight line.

While at George AFB they took my military license because I took a 4X4 Power Wagon out to the desert and was jumping dunes, fucking pilot turned me in.
