Just saw a tweet on it. I work on Eglin and hadn't seen anything on it from the base. I'm curious if we'll be on lockdown while he's here. I have a friend who was at MacDill when Trump visited last year, and he said they weren't even allowed to go near a window while he was still on base. I drive by the runway on the way out of work, would be cool to see Air Force One sort of up close.

For all Presidents when to do this sucks. People are still digging through rubble for bodies. If he doesn't go the media will say, as they have already..."Trump goes to a rally while hurricane hits Fla."

If he does go, Trump disrupts all operations by doing a photo op.

I am not jazzed by Dubya at all but he got a bad rap on this. It is foolishness...

As long as he doesn't tell some poor bastard at least they got a free boat out of the ordeal.

I forwarded this thread to the SS to let them know you were on base and you have full blown TDS.

That's a turn and burn for sure if he is really coming. Panama City is an hour and a half drive from here.

I guess they are planning on surprising us then because absolutely no one is talking about it in the office

Someone made a good point just now, he'll fly a helicopter to wherever he's going from here.


And just got the email:

Don’t plan to leave in the near future, there is a security traffic hold on Eglin right now.

You should run out and try to get close enough to give Trump a hug

If that's the case, I was wondering why they couldn't find a place closer to land, but Eglin is probably the only option in proximity to have a secure arrival and takeoff.

What makes Eglin's arrival any more secure than any other 11000ft runways?
