I don't know about you, but this is pretty cool. Can you imagine standing in the back of a C-130 (in this case Blue Angel C-130 Fat Albert) and having an F/A-18D flying a few feet away from you? I love doing aviation photography and this would be a dream opportunity.
Very cool, but why is his landing gear down? Landing in Fat Albert? lol
ReplyDeleteMy guess would be, to maintain the same airspeed as Fat Albert. It's an F-18 after all. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's right, to give it some extra drag. Airbrakes can only do so much... :D
