I have made this exact journey to the back myself back in 1989 and when we FINALLY made it out, my two buddies and I were so exhausted I didn't think we'd make it back to the car. I never missed being "OUTSIDE" more in my life. Believe it or not, we actually went to see S.R.V. that night and one of my buddies fell asleep in the concert. Thanks for a trip down memory lane with your story. WOW what a trip it was (over 9 hours for us). I doubt I'll do Airman's again, once is enough for me. Jimbo in Brady,TX.
