USAF. No TSA checks, no baggage restrictions, you can visit the cockpit and you can hang a hammock in the back

It made me realize my problems with flying revolved around airports, not so much the airlines themselves.

USAF C130 between Kuwait & Iraq was a weird experience. On the way out, it was “aw shit how many more months do I have?” On the way back it was “how much longer until I can get a beer?” Plane was fine while in air, but lowering the ramp on either end felt like walking into a damn blast furnace.
