Sorry to hear that Chester has made his last departure.

Chester had his flight plan previously filed, his departure point was from Charleston, and his route of flight was direct to heaven.

On Friday, June 7, 2019, Jesus gave him OK to start his engine, and gave him clearance to taxi to the runway hold line.

Sometime after being held at the hold line, Jesus gave him his departure clearance and Chester taxied onto the runway. He was airborne shortly thereafter. He was on his way home. Chester B. King, Msgt, Ret., United States Air Force, closed out his tour of duty.

A friend.
