This guy knows how to fly!
C-130 at Paris Air Show
It's worth turning the sound up (or put on headphones) just to hear the cockpit alarms & warnings going off...

Ah the four fans of freedom! Gotta love the herc. I don't think the new Airbus will do that.

Like how the guy in the co-pilot's seat has to hold on.

I must say, that is a big airplane to do all that with.

They don't call them Fat Alberts for nothing.
Would love to have been there and seen that lumbering around the sky.

Good little video, big plane doing steep turns ...big excess of power for the climbing prowess.
Im not sure how many crew there are on that - 3 voices on the intercom, so 2 pilots & engineer maybe.
They are all involved in flying the aircraft - calling limits etc and looking out.
Imagine the work load on the single seat guys. Hats off !
Heres another angle -

I liked 2 things about that video...
1. At about 50 seconds, when someone called "push over! push over!" and the cabin crew float in the air,
2. The little doll in a hula-hula skirt on the top of the dash!
It's amazing how much time the pilot and co-pilot are looking out of the side windows...
Good video...

Pilots with crew tend to call their intentions, so everyone can anticipate whats coming, in their case banging their heads on the roof.
Heres another couple - what do you think ?
