Thanks 4 looking

Great shots Chuck. Wink

Any particular reason to land a C-130 on a Nimitz?

Not any particularly good reason........but then again, is there any particular reason not to? Wink

Well done Chuck...

Several years ago I got to land a Herc "C130" Simulator on an aircraft carrier.

Don't think that didn't move you in your seat, there were three of us in the Simulator along with one of our son's the Instructor (dam show off)... Grin

.

On an instrument approach to a land base I had everything hunky dory when the little bugger shut off the instrument lights...
When I asked for a flashlight he said..."But dad...you always told us to be like Boy Scouts and alway always Be Prepared"...Kids.... Roll Eyes

Again well done Chuck... Wink

P.S. and I had to buy the beer in the mess also Chuck... Lips Sealed

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Cool video.

I can see why you wanted to try.

I forgot to ask, what aircraft is that in #4?
