I think a lot of people under-appreciate the airmanship on display with Fat Albert. Anyone can do donuts in a sports car, but it takes a real pilot to do them in a school bus.

Reece Drystek, C-130J is military transport, not 'school bus' by any means. With it's 14 megawatt powerplant per 35t takeoff weight (for demo flights w/o cargo), it outperfoms most of sports cars by power/weight ratio, and it's in one league by power and power-to-weight with heavy multirole fighters, like F-15 or Russian Su-35.

@@stevenhuckaby2902 The man is the flight engineer. He is not instructing the woman. The woman is the captain and completely in charge of flying and the entire plane. The man is simply reciting readouts and marks for the demonstration. I do remember him from other videos and he has quite the character. My favourite is when they hit V2 and rotate and he shouts, "Let's go flying."

I’ve always found at shows people do not respect FA as much as they should. It’s viewed as a sort of filler for the main show but the crews are just as qualified, professional, focused, and skilled as every pilot in the show. It takes an amount of precision and focus not found in many aviators to make a big bird like that do the things they do with it and in many aspects are even more difficult than flying 1-7. My favorite part of the demo 😊

Folks don't understand that the entire Blue Angels' show is tightly choreographed and, yes, they are all professionals. I'm not just making noise here when I say that these people are the best of the best! They are all the very tops, cream of the crop in their jobs or they don't make the team. I love big planes! When I fly planes my simulator (I would kill to have access to a real simulator for an old 707 or something of that nature or even the flight deck of an old 4 engine beast like the Lockheed Constellation), I love to fly only the big propeller driven aircraft, the C-130 included. 🤪 I regret never learning to fly especially given my family's history. My brother is also a helo pilot, retired. My bro-in-law is a retired Marine Corps aviator of fixed wing A/C and helos. I got to see Fat Albert and the Angels many times, and I can tell you it was always a thrilling pleasure. My Pops was in the Air Force so growing up I never missed an air show with the Thunderbirds. I first saw them perfotm way back in 1960/1961 when they were flying F-100s Super Sabres! I LOVE AIRPLANES! This a great video! Thanks for sharing. What a treat!

WOW. I got the chance to ride in it as a media member a roughly 4 or 5 years back before the Wings Over Houston Air Show (highly recommend going!!). Unfortunately I attended a Tequila Tasting the night before. But that's another story. The flight was insane, but I only could see out side windows across the plane as the seats in back run across the sides of the plans facing in toward center (and out the opposite side windows) for a visual reference to the ground. So seeing this view backs up went I felt inside. They went ZeroG. We were strapped in, but some of the crew "floated" while holding onto a latter they had in the plane. Great experience!

Notice the crew coordination. There is no conversation on takeoff roll when the flight controls transfer to the pilot. In a normal aircraft, you would hear "my controls" from the pilot and "your controls" from the copilot. These two know each other. At the proper point, the copilot lets go and the pilot takes control - silently.
@svyt4 жыл бұрын
Flight crews don't count on silent assumptions for transfer of control. Check this video of a Fat Albert takeoff, which includes the intercom audio: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGrLkKN6btx2lc0 Transfer of control is crisp, concrete, and not silent: Flight Engineer: "80 knots" Pilot: "My yoke" CoPilot: "Your Yoke" (Edit: Actually, it looks like the CoPilot made the airspeed callout...) Back to this video, check the action right around 8:53. It's hard to distinguish between talking and gum chewing, but as she moves her left hand from the nosewheel tiller to the yoke, you see her chin make a sharp movement out of rhythm with her gum chewing, which is certainly the "My yoke" call. We can't see the first officer's mouth at this point, but you can see him follow her with his left hand on the yoke for just a second before he relaxes his grip. Flight crews don't transfer control silently.

@dragon61727 жыл бұрын
I would guess that during the climb her focus is on the attitude indicator, keeping a certain climb angle and keeping wings level. The climb has to end when the airspeed decreases to a certain amount or the aircraft will stall. Sounds like the copilot is monitoring airspeed, if you listen closely you can hear him shout "110" right as the engineer taps her shoulder. The shoulder tap is another way of letting the pilot know to push the nose over and stop the climb. Say, for example, if the intercom failed and the copilots airspeed call out wasn't heard, the pilot would feel the tap and know to stop the climb.
