Why on earth did the silly sod not just put the jet U/S at Hickolulu?

Dear Queen - please send some chaps and a feel sim test kit as soon as you can manage it. Do let us know when - we'll be quaffing Mai Tais at the Royal Hawaiian on Waikiki until then!

Looking at that itinerary, I suspect that I know the role you were involved in - and it wasn't just boat-spotting. Fortunately when I flew in that role in a rather more comfortable jet, we had sufficient range to avoid the need to go to Guam (or Midway).
