Hi,

Not much yesterday, missed quite a bit due to being indoors at work, but the KC-135R at IAD was very nice!  Another a/c asked TWR if he was from Andrews, so TWR asked the KC "Where are you from, REACH?"  Answer:  "Switching to departure, REACH 1071".  TWR reply:  "Well, alright REACH, be that way!".  8-))
