I lived and worked in Jeddah Saudi Arabia
between 1974 through 1979.
First as a dependent while my parents
were working for Lockheed International
under contract
via the Royal Saudi Air Force's
C-130 wing mod. program.
I returned to the States
in the summer of 1979
and joined the US Army later that year.
I also worked in the airline industry
between 1985 to 1989 for
International Air Service Corporation (IASCO).
We were operating under
the name Sprit Of America Airlines.
An air cargo company that carried freight
not only commercially, but also
for USPS, CF Air Freight
and the USAF.
