Been There, Done That
other veterans have left their mark on the aircraft interior |
Unfortunately, the generator on engine number 1 malfunctioned while
Boogie Baby was warming up for the first of its two scheduled
flights.
Those on board were given a "Stand Up, Hook Up" demonstration and
the jump team went out the door to the tarmac as though actually
jumping.
Those waiting for flight number two were disappointed but
understanding.
Thus ended the flight and jump demos. |
