hello all I recently flew to hawaii and spent a day on the beach then flew the cod( a small twin engine plane that holds 25 people and a navy crew of 4)out to a navy ship in distress and landed on the aircraft carrier,2 and a half hours later by means of an arresting gear,which stops you in 300 ft in 1.5 seconds.I had done this many times prior to having my ileostomy,but when your wearing a 4 point harness strapped to a tiny seat and wearing a life preserver it does put a little squeese on the ole bag.
after spending 3 days onboard said ship then it was time to get back on the cod and now catapult off the ship,which consistes of putting on the same outfit and sitting back in the tight seat and launch off the catapult 345 ft in 2.8 seconds and fly back to the beach but only for 30 mins.then spent the night in waikiki and back home the following day.I posted some new pics here on the fun.Having done this archaic and brutal way of flying I think anyone out there that feels its to hard to fly and to bothersome can be rest assured that you can fly anywhere now and get out of the house and enjoy life.I had no squeaks or leaks the whole time.
happy new year
