Las Vegas, NV (USA)
After a good night in the Excalibur Hotel & Casino, met up with the crew for our departure from Las Vegas. We headed over to McCarron and got the jet ready quickly. Once of our squadron mates, Steve, flew down from Seattle last night (for his airline job) and had gotten stranded. He met us at the airplane this morning and asked if we could get him back to Hampton Road. Lucky guy - I guess we saved him a lot of trouble... We departed before noon (local time) and the weather was much nicer than yesterday. We had great views of the Strip and the surrounding mountains. [Flying with Tracy M.] It ended up being a quick trip and we arrived back at NAS Oceana pretty early. Easy RON mission!
