Opertation Shoulda Turned Left At Albuquerque
This was a particularly brutal mission. Two maggots showed and things started out in high spirits. We headed for a distress call in the Jamaica Plain System. En route we suffered three mechanicals causing Sparky to have to abandon the fleet. The remaining pilots headed to TheCastle for festivities. We arrived in high spirits and after a half hour shore leave we decided to take a leisurely route back. This is when things started going awry. The fleet headed through TheSouthwest Corridor wormhole and passed through the Christian science center. While crossing at a crosswalk a rather pesky motorcyclist decided to pull right up to diva's ship and rev his engine. However, he proved no match for the 20 brave pilots. The pilots continued to head to LunaKrispeeKreme and then proceeded towards home. A wrong turn led us into the park where, unknowingly we headed to the Fountain of Evil. We could no longer resist the bad karma. More mechanicals ensued along with negi feelings and several injuries! We feared we were doomed. We took a long rest and we headed again for the fort. The bomber StarHustler sustained heavy damage at the Fountain of Evil. It returned to the landing field riddled with flak, on the proverbial wing and a prayer. With one engine out and the rear thruster wobbly, only the strong legs and indefatigable spirit of bombardier Oppo got us back to base. However, against all odds, the pilots made it home in one piece.
