Dramatic Landing by Blue Angels Fat Albert Seattle

[alexcala1]

you ruined the video with the fucking music

[KD1video]

@alexcala1 See version with no music...click on video responses. I also don't appreciate the f-bomb being used on my youtube channel.

[KD1video]

@orhofshi see video response, same video, no music.

[3333glen]

C-130 is one of the best aircraft ever designed. It does EVERYthing.

[KD1video]

Note from KD1video, I've uploaded this exact video without music, just prop sounds, click above video response to view.

[lagunabad]

im glad theres got mute button :-)

[KD1video]

@lagunabad see new version no music.

[Rct3Mad300]

That's One Steep Incline! 

[Mr13born79]

mute



[RWBHere]

I want to see this again, with the sound of the aircraft.

[KD1video]

@RWBHere Here you go, no music, just turboprops: same video with music removed see above video response by me (KD1video). 

[RWBHere]

@KD1video Thanks for taking the trouble to upload the video again! That's much better - and in HD, too.

We get a few Hercules flying around here, but nothing so colourful as that one.

[RampantRedBull]

Jeeez, bit risky having a Flag on the front of the plane at start up and taxying...

[MrJED698]

"HEY HEY HEY ITS FAT ALBERT!:P

[pb4ls4l]

Gotta love combat takeoffs and landings.

[SlamDuncDrummer]

Would have been great without the music.

[frankenstein04]

What kind of dumbass does it take to " dislike"this video...I dont think they realize how impressive that is that plane probally weighs as much as a small cruise ship....and these pilots managed to stop in with HALF a runway length....that is some fucking skill at its finest well done Angels.

[HambertHM]

I want to see that whith fully cargo onboard.

[pipingmarine]

@HambertHM You always have a comment to put someone else down, huh? Is nothing good enough for you? Grow up.

[HambertHM]

@pipingmarine I'm sorry, I didn't want to hurt anybody. I just felt curious about how would it be with full cargo, if it's possible to do that. I think you're a little sensitive!!

[HambertHM]

@pipingmarine Being more specific, I just wanted to know if this technique is aplicable in real situations.

[MrDrift212]

i aint never seen no plane tip like that during landing

[f22acefightertwo]

fat albert over powers the song lol

[mattys629]

I rode in fat albert a couple years ago. Pretty wild ride.. the loadmaster didn't sit down or strap in and pretty much went fully horizontal while holding onto the ladder at points. DO NOT eat immediately before taking that ride...

[arkansastrash320]

He went up at 45% allmost and no JATO those must be some super powerfull engines they have!! This is without a doubt my favorite plane.

[ONASEK1911]

not the dramatic landing but the landing type Sarajevo

[edratliff]

isnt that the landing they do when they are coming in to dangerous areas - like Baghdad? Minimizes the chances of being hit by a SAM?

[lithium803]

Great video, music was a distraction though.

[RcFlyBy1]

the music didn't go at all

[SuperFsxpilot]

the songs looks like the sims bustin out

[vargjarvis]

great video, thanks. I rode in fat albert in July 2009 and it was the most incredible experience ever.

[donieking]

cooooooool

[FoulOwl]

Good video,Once I got that annoying shit song muted.

[chuanist]

Yeah, huh? Good footage, but it is too bad that everyone thinks music is necessary.

[Nicoladrag]

Khe San Drop

[Sn1p3rBo55]

Khe Sanh

[Nicoladrag]

Fuck me! forgot the "H"  ! Sinner!

[BMuris]

The "Sarajevo" landing is an approach that is quite critical and dangerous. I don't think there are videos of it here, but you can Google it, it looks very dangerous and you can read about it, interesting story behind it.

This landing was nice too, thanks for sharing.

[biukucanoe]

I captured the same in 2008, but you missed them backing up into their parking spot afterwards. Do they still do the JATO takeoffs? I worked with a USMC guy who said he had a JATO bottle got loose and put a hole in the wing.

[CRsBeem]

They still do them....saw Fat Albert at Miramar in October. Still dramatic, and the short field landing there was very, very short!

[spi898]

Not anymore. The Company that Produced the Rockets isnt in Business anymore and Fat Albert Airlines only has 8 Remaining :( So Sad

[choprjock]

I don't believe any slip was used at all. The wings are level and the nose is pointed down the runway. I believe the pilot just set the flaps, nosed over and throttled back. A nice flare at the bottom and touchdown. Slips (and crabs) are normally used to counteract crosswinds. When used to lose altitude, the aircraft has to be "dirtied up" to increase drag and reduce lift. This aircraft doesn't appear to be doing that.

[choprjock]

Hey, DjMagnificien! If you had been inside that aircraft while they were doing that takeoff and landing, you'd be feeling some drama, along with your lunch and whatever you had for breakfast.

[DjMagnificien]

where is the drama?

[pilotemtnils]

Vertical climb out in a 130, A M A Z I N G, high angle approach with short field landing, UBER A M A Z I N G, mad skills....made in AMERICA!

[Nikedude109]

atleast he landed it

[RMBmike]

It's not an assymetric slip. You are correct. It is a forward slip. Google 'Airplane Forward Slip' and you'll see what I mean. That's what Fat Albert did.

[RMBmike]

Playernl2,

Yeah his engines were pretty much idle.

Quiet, the nose dive is a manuever called a slip. It allows you to lose a large amount of altitude in a very short amount of distance. At the same time, it also allows you to maintain your airspeed so you don't get too fast in the dive, or too slow and stall out. They're useful if you have to clear mountains and have to immediately descend into final approach.

[playernl2]

is he landing with idle engines from the moment he dived?

[QuietImWatchingThis]

Um, sir we are going to miss the runway.

No problem, ill just nose dive!

[stratotanker518]

Cool vid.

[TavernProductions]

nice

[legendofspades2004]

[moose6692]
