Nice set Rich. Is Pease easy to shoot at, or do you have connections there?

Great set, Rich

Very nice, Rich! I spent a week at PSM trying to drag some F-4s to Europe back in the day. And as John asked, how is it to shoot at there?

A hundred years ago, I went to UPT with a guy from the Mainiacs, although I think he pulled a deal to move to the Mass ANG and fly F-106s.

Its fairly easy to shoot there. There is a chain link fence all around the field, but there is a public golf course at the approach end of runway 34 which is a nice spot to shoot arrivals when that runway is in use.

Sounds like fun times Moose!!!!

Thanks Kaz!
