In mozambique it was! The terrorists came to my strip and I had to get the hell out in a hurry! Thunderstorms moved in and I got caught between layers while trying to get back to home base about 75 miles away. The first time I got caught in a fogbank in Louisiana and struggled to keep rightside up while climbing. Tops were only about 1200' and I got a heading back to the strip. There was a hole right over the strip and I could see the ground so spun it down. The tops were solid as far as I could see and I only had a little over an hour of fuel on board with a full hopper of toxic stuff (4-2-1) and didn't want to crash with it on board! Those were my stupid days!! |
