What an airplane.

Yoke didn't seem to inhibit his flying.  :D

Notice he was using full aileron a lot during that routine.

Yeah, doesn't look cool to grab the glare shield like that.  (You can use the right hand to grab the seat frame and lock yourself in -- no one notices and you look "cool" in the seat)  I've looked out of the B-17 windshield at about 110 degrees of roll -- I know how he feels.

Very nice C-130 flying.

I must say though that I hated when my helicopter was anywhere near a C-130 on the flight line. They make the most aggravating noise when running on the ramp with those props in fine pitch.

Doing pushups in the back with the ramp down is fun. And so is Almost having the pilot kill you by overshooting the runway ( RI ANG cant offord decent training i guess ).   :devil
