Jamo,
I spent some time at Castle, as did U2 as I understand. Really neat is being wrapped up in a nomex flight suit and gloves, sitting in a grossly un-airconditioned metal tube, next to better than 110,000 pounds of JP4, on a 110 degree day, waiting for 6 other aircraft to take off. Less than 10 minutes later its less than freezing outside and I got to go to the back and pass gas.
It was cold back there, but lots of cool little planes came to visit. Every once in awhile a cowboy butter-bar driving a B52 came by wanting a drink, and the show was on. I can scare the crap out of a few folks on this site, especially U2, just by saying 'breakaway'
Yep, I liked Castle. I barfed on that ramp a number of times. Maybe they'll name a corner after me!
