Wayne, nice pics. One question though. Why did you choose a slow boat as
your mode of transportation. You could have done a low fly by in a plane

No problem. I'll tell the Air Force you're interested in one of their
spy jobs they are decommissioning with budget cuts

I prefer the up-close look myself. No airplane will ever be able to
back up slowly while you're tracking a big lobster!

That's one of the very reasons that when I fly I always will request a
back seat. I've never heard of a plane backing into a mountain.

Watched most of a documentary show on salvaging a big 747.
Seems that the 'black box' (cockpit voice recorder) is installed near the
tail section because that's where the engineers feel it has the best chance
of surviving.

I'm with you there. If my plane crashes into a mountain, I don't want to
miss one second of it.
