Ft. Riley - MUIC

Today I was assigned to be the 'personnel' representative for the unit and attend the MUIC (Mobilized Unit In-processing Center) with 7 other fellow soldiers. We met up at 4am in the Wayne Armory then drove to Lincoln and hopped on a UH-60 Blackhawk to fly us down to Ft. Riley. Below are the pictures from our flight.

This is our arrival at the airbase in Lincoln, as you can see the fleet of birds in the hanger. The white plane is the governor's jet.



The bird we flew on shown above is a UH-60 Blackhawk helicoptor.



These are the seats that we sat in. I was chosen for the assistant crew chief position in the bird so I had one of the seats pointing to the side of the craft as shown on the right side of this image.



The above picture is of our pilots, I sat right behind them.



Once in flight, I took some pictures of the surroundings. Right directly infront of me was a window that started at my knees and went to the top of the craft. We flew with this window all the way open. Good thing I had that 4-point harness holding me in, otherwise I would of fallen out!



This is me in my seat, note the window in front of me that was open during flight.





The last two pictures are of the bird taking off back to Lincoln after dropping us off in Wayne after along day in Ft. Riley.
