Letting a minute pass between tank and infantry drops means a long walk. Do the planes double back to drop the infantry (at least the tank crew) closer to the previous tank drop?
Palehorse, small-world. I issued the parachutes I had a prior commitment so another guy flew as the inflight rigger. I here the champagne was flowing after the engines were shut down.
They can, same as the C-141. They both also have these heavy metal grates with angled holes in them, one on each side, called wind-deflectors so we paratroopers don't get smashed against the side while exiting.
I don't usually talk to idiots who don't know what they're talking about, but for u I'll make an exception.

Air Force, Army then back to the Air Force. Are you a Navy SEAL too? Hey, I hear that Scotland Yard needs some phony agents for special phony missions. Good luck!
@palehorse25 I believe you. I believe I was on that jump too. I was a member of the 1st BN 39th FA at Bragg from January '87 to Nov '89 and I had 2 jumps from a C5. I remember one was the historic C5 Galaxy jump-capability test. The jumpers that day were primarily from the 82nd and 18th airborne corp. The second was a few months after the first. The rest of my 33 jumps were from C130's anbd C141's.

Having one of those tanks land behind your lines will most definitely ruin your day.

I love this video for a couple of reasons. 1. I was in this unit that did the jump.
2. I'M ONE OF THE JUMPERS!!!

Yeah and in another video you said you are a veteran Cobra pilot. Smells like a ranch around here for some reason.
