What a great article.
Anyone who has experienced ferry flying for long distances knows how trying it can be and he describes this flight so well, you can almost feel the bladder hurting!!

I flew across the Pacific going to war in Vietnam in 67, 12,000 miles, with bathroom stops on Wake Is, and at Clark AFB in the Philippines, that was a difficult "cross-your-legs-tightly" trip, so a Salute to those who ferried planes across the Sea.
