Back in the day SAC did weekend incentive flights. We'd load up a KC-135 with 20~25 PAX and head for somewhere for a long weekend. Gravy job for us crewchiefs, we'd preflight and launch with the airplane early friday morning. When we landed around noon we would park, pump the airplane and put her to bed. Had the weekend off, back at the aircraft early Monday for preflight, kick the tires and light the fires for the trip home. Got paid TDY pay and per diem for the trip which really sucked... 😄
