What's with the C-130? Did they say why it had that ridiculous paint on it?

The big red "2" doesn't really look that fuzzy... it's the effect of humidity, zoom, and the fact that red looks like crap in jpegs.

Don't know what the number means, but this bird is set up for fire-supression. They did a demo, but of course my camcorder battery died at the precise moment, to the millisecond that the water came out. Roll Eyes
