Thought you guys might like the enclosed, 5 clips of a reporter from the Atlanta Journal, getting a ride with the Blue Angels at NAS Atlanta.
He held in better than I think I might have done ;)

Have to say it's always fun to see a "too cool for school" media type abused. :ok: We took a local newspaper reporter along on a Herk 18 ship low-level. This guy happened to be very anti military and had no respect for what we do. Needless to say, they took him away in a ambulance after becoming very dehydrated after filling numerous bags. We did nothing out of normal ops for us. I think he left with a whole new appreciation of our Herks!

Many thanks for the links. I'll be using them to help me teach my students about g-force, effects of gravity etc. They will love it!

Don't think i've ever appreciated the effects of G quite as much as I do after watching that!
