Military contract flying troops to and from Guantanamo...I was told it would be a regular occurrence when I was FBO'd off the flight because they wanted 2 check airman to do the first flight and check out the operations down there. That was late last year.

Seriously, who care? Flying in and out of there is a huge PITA, otherwise it’s another mil charter.
Been in and out of MUGM dozens of times rotating Marines and personel in and out. Or was the OP trying to turn this into a political tantrum?

It was a special qual airfield for the C-5. We couldn't take off to the west due to the fence line. Regardless, it was interesting!

The Newark guppy had the Gitmo turns out of Navy Jax a few years ago. They were hard to get because they had deadheads on either end as a 3 day. If you were really ambitious, you could do the 3 day as a 1 day.
