Nellis Air Force Base, Nev. -- Military and civilian flights are subject to the same laws of nature - when a plane due to weather, the pilots have to make quick decisions about where to divert the aircraft. Weather, fuel, and availability of maintenance all play a part on where the wheels should touch down. (Official U.S. Air Force photo by Staff. Sgt. Shawn C. Rhodes)
