He has some of the coolest stories ever. Can't remember what time of jet it was but I remember hearing him say how he did the president (the elder bush maybe?) a favor and the president asked him what he wanted in return. Father H replied that he wanted to fly in the jet, president replied with no way, even generals aren't allowed to see the jet, let alone fly in it. Father H said fine. Two days later he received a call asking for a time to schedule his flight in which he traveled from ND to Salt lake city, and then California, and back to ND all in under two hours, including short stops at each of those locations.

Ha I made that comment prior to watching the video, he actually talks about the jet story in the vid (my details om the locations were a little shaky, but close enough haha)

I believe it was Sacramento to Salt Lake to Denver to Seattle to Sacramento in 45 minutes. Davonte Neal says that's fast.
