2009 Blue Angels Homecoming Airshow - Fat Albert

[punkrckr2]

I am a USAF Crew Chief on B-1s and got to ride in Fat Albert at the NAS Kingsville Air Show this past weekend. Its such a crazy ride and takes the C-130 to its performance envelope. at least 3 times throughout the short 10 minute profile you go to 0 grav and during the climbs you do 2.5Gs. Also the wheelie at the end is part of the demo to show their maximum braking effectiveness and the no JATO is because the navy does not need the JATO bottles anymore and ran out at the end of the 2008 season.

You know... I work on these babies every day and I still can't get enough of them. :)

There is definitely beauty in simplicity!
