C130 departure

As has been noted ... it was a JB epic and little things like the facts have never got in the way of a good shot.

Seem to recall my firm's involvement in Goldeneye, when our pilot was called on to land our black Robbo on a moving Ruskie train. Not sure where the producer thought the blades would go as the hydraulic clam shell doors closed (a three day sequence finished on the cutting room floor.)

Returning to the C130 500 exit, nothing there that sawn off M/R blades, an electirc motor and a well judged cut couldn't have coped with. (you should know these film boys) But as a bar discussion, who wants to speculate how the real heli would react for the requested sequence, when reality took over!

Must have had a quiet day!
