(Background noise)

00:04.474 --> 00:08.253
- Uh, Brandon Hansen and
I'm a load master for C17.

00:12.820 --> 00:15.053
Uh, so today we're just doing a local.

00:15.970 --> 00:18.483
We did some low levels out over the water,

00:19.460 --> 00:21.510
you know points to point navigation stuff

00:24.277 --> 00:25.890
and then we went to north field,

00:25.890 --> 00:28.760
did some pattern work for
about an hour and a half

00:28.760 --> 00:31.690
and yeah, got all the pilots up there just

00:31.690 --> 00:34.640
did a bunch of touch and goes,
trying to get those reps in.

00:38.440 --> 00:42.700
Well, for them it's really just a chance

00:42.700 --> 00:44.810
to get those reps in so
they're getting used to,

00:44.810 --> 00:46.720
you know, landing on the runway,

00:46.720 --> 00:51.520
getting their approach right,
really just everything.

00:51.520 --> 00:55.320
Low levels is great for you know,

00:55.320 --> 00:56.360
if you're in a combat environment

00:56.360 --> 00:58.220
and you have to avoid anti-aircraft fire,

00:58.220 --> 01:01.023
or anything like that
keeps you below that.

01:02.600 --> 01:05.240
There's a lot of tactical
advantages to it,

01:05.240 --> 01:08.793
so it's just good repetition,
it's good practice.

01:14.190 --> 01:15.830
I mean, I love it.

01:15.830 --> 01:17.220
I love my job.

01:17.220 --> 01:18.570
I think it's pretty unique.

01:20.050 --> 01:22.200
You know, this is a pretty cool AFSC.

01:22.200 --> 01:23.940
There's a lot of people
who wish they could do this

01:23.940 --> 01:25.781
because you get to travel around,

01:25.781 --> 01:27.590
you get to actually do stuff, you know,

01:27.590 --> 01:28.960
you get to help people.

01:28.960 --> 01:32.620
And that, that's a pretty cool thing.

01:32.620 --> 01:35.280
Not a lot of people get
to say they've been to

01:35.280 --> 01:38.550
twenty different countries
or more around the world.

01:38.550 --> 01:40.220
And that's, you know,

01:40.220 --> 01:42.713
I'm just really privileged
to say I can do that.
