Footage of reporter up with Blue Angels

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

If it'd been me, well, hate to admit it, but we'd have been IMC on even the clearest of days - stomach contents ain't that transparent when spread thickly over clear polycarbon: - - - - - - -

Have to say it's always fun to see a "too cool for school" media type abused. 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!

Journalist in an F18...

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!
