Househunting Trip - Day 8

Up at 0720 to go to work with Bob. Took tour of his office - lots to see and met lots of people. Went over to training wing to get a flight suit - they had one. Learned about the T-34 and tried on flight equipment. Lunch at Ace's (buffet). Looked into flights back to Norfolk and found one on Saturday. Went back to Bob's office with plans to fly F-18 simulator but learned that I could go flying instead! At 1300, Kempel took me up and we flew south towards St. Augustine. Flew over Lake George - he let me have the controls and we did some simulated runs on targets in the Pine Castle MOA. He demonstrated aileron rolls, barrel rolls, 1/2 Cuban Eights, loops, wingovers and Slit-S. He even showed me a simulated emergency landing. Great time!! Home by 1630 after some touch and gos. Had dinner (shrimp) at Bob's again (1830). Beers at Bennigans around 2230 and then went to see "Terminator 2." A little indoor workout at 0100. Bed at 0215.
