Re: Fat Albert in-flight video

I would love to see what that looked like from the ground! Thanks!

Re: Fat Albert in-flight video

Awesome. Fat Albert flew at Janesville last week. It did the combat takeoff, but did not use the JATO bottles. It also backed up on the runway after landing.

Thanks for the video.

Re: Fat Albert in-flight video

That's cool... how come the three guys didn't have to be seated and belted for takeoff?

Re: Fat Albert in-flight video

I believe that video was taken at Janesville last week.

According to my sources the Navy has no more RATO bottles in stock. The last ones have already been used and there is no supplier.
