Ed Force One - SJO

Shortly after leaving SAL, we entered a crowded Costa Rican airspace. This was going to get a bit complicated. Bruce had to negotiate the mountains and a holding pattern but apparently oncoming traffic too. Bruce and the MROC controller were fencing a bit as Bruce wanted RWY07 and the controller kept directing RWY25. Once we were made aware there was departing traffic on RWY 25, it made sense to listen to the controller. After all, with my size I probably wouldn’t be nimble enough to win a game of Chicken... and I'm not sure Costa Rican's would appreciate a nuts and bolts shower.

Ed Force One - SAL

El Salvador greeted me like a war hero while we made our first visit ever. Fans lined the fences to snap pictures of me. During the gig, Nicko even saluted one of their war heroes, a saint. (some still think I worship the fallen angel - and I sort of play along - I mean, look at the graphics on me)

Ed Force One - MTY and TLC

I flew the rowdy bunch into Monterrey on February 29th. During our approach, the crew greeted the MTY tower with a few seconds of Wasted Years... and asking them "Do you like that?" (Somewhere back in time of about 9:20 in the clip below.)

After they played in Monterrey, I flew them all down to TLC outside of Mexico City. Some folks didn’t think that was funny as they waited outside the fences at MEX (the other more famous airport) to see me. LOL! I still can't stop laughing about it.
