After �leaving Phu�Loi the stops along the way included Dau Tieng, Tay Ninh, Nui Ba Dinh, Lai�Khe,�Quan Loi, An Loc, Song Be, Long Binh (with stops at Plantation, Stanford, 121�Evac, Red Carpet and the MACV pad), Chu Chi, Di An, Saigon with stops at�Hotel 3, sometimes the embassy roof top (made famous during the evac) and another pad�that escapes me (I dropped a load of Aussies out of Vung Tau there on�their way�back to their world), Xuan Loc, then out to Vung Tau. Of course not all�places were visited on each run so it was a different route each time you flew�it. And �there was always some folks in need of a ride somewhere waiting at each stop so�you did what you could. Image courtesy of Jay Brown
