"The Great Escape" 7/22- AIR FORCE BONEYARD

Melissa & Morgan (promotional models)
Michael & brother Justin (siblings)
Justin Truitt & Rob Silver (the former's a bartender, while the latter's a fitness coach; they've been friends for a decade)

DZ: Teams start strapped inside of a B-52 bomber's (which is about to celebrate its 60th Anniversary) cargo hold w/ temperatures topping 120 degrees right off the bat. They have to use a blacklight flashlight to find the exit & take a rucksack w/ a shovel.

Michael bumped his head on one of those planes & had to get medical treatment.

S1 (radio tower field): Each team has to choose a 25-foot radio tower & dig up a ratchet winch needed to bring their tower down to retrieve a windsock & screwdriver.
FIRST WORD IN $100K DESTINATION: AIR

Justin suffered from heat stroke symptoms. This might've helped them, though- IT WAS THE FIRST-EVER TRIPLE CAPTURE. After that, the RT has the early lead...but Justin was MEDICALLY UNABLE TO CONTINUE, SO THE GT WAS FORCED TO LEAVE THE GAME.
 
S2 (fuel tank depot): The remaining two teams had to fold a windsock in a way that they would see a matching code for the fuel tank sides (AF6307865). They then had to open up the tank's side panel to take w/ them bazooka projectiles.
SECOND $100K DESTINATION CLUE: BOR (AIRBOR...)

The BT GOT CAPTURED A SECOND TIME.

S3 (C-5 storage zone): Use the bazooka to shoot a yellow black target to open its hatch door & enter said plane using a rope ladder. Once done, the morse code chart inside must be taken.
THIRD $100K DC: NE L (AIRBORNE L...)

FINAL S (C-5 cargo-holding cockpit): Both teams had to strap themselves into a pulley system & work their way to the cockpit, where they then need to figure out the looping Morse Code Modulator message to open the emergency escape hatch via a code. A safety knife from a satellite antenna can be retrieved on the C-5's roof.
COMPLETE $100K DESTINATION: (Boeing YAL-1) AIRBORNE LASER (Testbed)

TZ: Inside the Z130, that safety knife has to be used to cut through a rope to free a small utility vehicle.

WINNERS- RT
