Wen he said "You know what? You should probably back up." And then the other guy said "Oh OK reverse thrust?" You would think he was right behind the Pilot, but then they showed how big it is, so it's probably not the Pilot.
So what was going on there? Who was he talking to???
@Ivansky1 The guy to my right said something like 'watch he's gonna back up', to which I said 'reverse thrust'...Pilots were far away from us. I was however sitting next to one of the Commanders there...he's on my left. The reliable info you may hear comes from him...
The army doesn't have transport pilots unless you count CH-47s To fly a plane in the US forces you need to be an officer, so apply to the air force academy or some other officer canadet school
@PMAN46 as far as I can tell you with out looking immediatly into it, (sorry about the spelling, I do know what I'm talking about) as an army recuiter about warrant officers and tell him or her that you want to fly c-17s or c-130s or just transport planes.... he'll give you an earful.
Actually they didn't forget. And its totally safe. Maybe unsafe for civies, but they had enough airmen by the ramp it wasn't that big of an issue. Many times they'll keep stuff open when it's really hot because its next to impossible to cool down.
