However, on this last trip after a little run in with ATA airlines, a flat airplane nose tire, and the Turkish government, I won't be jumping up and down to go back anytime soon! We were delayed getting home by almost a week and placed in a hanger to sleep in for the duration thanks to all that! Below are some pictures from the deployment. Click on any for larger photos.
