Google Map Satellite View of the Airhead airfield!

I "think" this is where we did the Airheads from...

I've been trying to find this for years! I'd been looking too far north I guess. It wasn't until recently when I was writing the book that I came across some posts that made me realize I was looking for the wrong things. Looking at the satellite view, there is a north / south run way. Look at the south end, to the west side, that large gray rectangle is the flight line we did our helo ops from. The big Air Force plane would land on the North / South, then taxi up to the north east corner of that flight line. The cargo would get unloaded then re packaged according to what ship it went to. We'd then fly it from the south end of the flight line, heading due east to where our ship was at anchor, about 3000 pounds at a time, from sun rise to sun set. Once or twice a week.
