That is what they say about flying though, hours of boredom with moments of sheer terror. It happens. Iāve had some long flights I thought would never end, then interupted by a mechanical problem or weather change.
Thereās always the Sky Typers for your aerial messaging needs:

True true, itās not all guns and bombs in aerial warfare. I used to fly with a guy who flew the EA-6 on those exact msisions. Interesting storiesā¦
Not to mention, aircraft broadcasting false propaganda using āpsychological warfare.ā Sounds crazy, but it is a recognized and effective ātoolā on the battlefield. I once toured a C-130 that had a full TV station in it, bunch of antennas on the tail, that they used to broadcast messages with a fake Saddam during Desert Storm. Nothing sensitive or classified here, this was out in public at an air show.
C-130 rolling down the strip Airborne Ranger on a one way trip hay hay all the way.

Thatās gotta be something to behold. Totally different perspective in the air.
