Part III Home

Leaving Japan. Next destination: Korea

 

   We had been treated like royalty and had enjoyed our time in Misawa. After our great trip into the mountains to Lake Towada, a night out on the town, and a performance, it was time to leave for Osan, Korea. Actually, we flew back to Yakota first. As I stated earlier, all flying was done via military transport planes. Less than "comfy," but a real adventure for a bunch of rock n rollers. I don't know if you are familiar with a C-5 aircraft, but let me assure you that it is HUGE. So huge that I couldn't even get it all in the picture using a panoramic camera. Note that the entry into the rear of the plane is really a stairway on a truck that was pulled up to the plane. Compare the second picture with the first and it will give you a good perspective of the size of this plane.
