And ofcourse the shortest landing distance is 0ft, which unfortunately is held by to many.

Believe it or not I was lucky enough to be aboard a Fat Albert (Blue Angels C 130) Demo at a local airport a couple of years ago. those Jato rockets are so powerful I got the shock of my life as we rotated I thought something was going wrong, the pitch angle was so excessive. Boy what a ride..... The video is of the ride from the ground....I'll post video from the inside soon.....

PS How did I get the ride....Press Pass !!
