I understand they are under investigation now...I read a story that said their request to perform the stunt was denied.

A bud if mine sent this pic of his aviation display! 🤣🤣🤣

May be an image of airplane

Not a video but a cool google maps image. I was dicking around online (what happens when one retires) and stumbled on a 4 ship of Blacksnakes in the pattern.  Ft Wayne boys coming back home. In google maps at their heritage park (street view) you can see all four of them make the break. Pretty cool.image.thumb.png.0bce8da765b8f65ac6d585eb9e89f4cf.png

Looks like the hook and/or cable hit the engines and made that spark shower. Honestly not sure. I saw one of these from the SOF truck before and don’t remember seeing sparks but I do remember the directive to not use the brakes and use the motors when the cable starts to pull you backwards. Nice job to all involved!

I know it's not as cool as most of the videos in this thread but could you imagine a formation of fat Americans flying these things to Walmart?

If you look closely, you can see the load's Subway sandwich wrapper falling out of the back.  Lol

In all seriousness, this is pretty cool to see.

On the Talon when we would drop a bundle to the snake eaters we would insert gifts for them. Always scored a PI. The Shadows never did catch on why we always outscored them on drops.
