Men and their Duct Tape. Would you have gotten in that plane to fly again?

Duct tape was used in Viet Nam to patch planes for missions. Just thought y'all might want to know. :)

Duct tape is the all around tool.

Duct tape may be the best, but I wouldn't fly in that plane. I can't even imagine, especially flying in Alaska.

My son is in the Air Force stationed in Fairbanks, AK. I've heard some stories from him about moose walking around the parking lot, etc. He was in South Carolina before this, and even though it is a big change, he is really enjoying it in Alaska. Typical mother, all I do is worry about bears, moose, and 40 degrees below zero weather.
