- Today I'm bringing you onboard NASA's C-130 to fly an Earth Science mission for the ACT-AMERICA campaign. I've condensed a full 7 hour flight into about 15 minutes & you get to see some of the sights we see as well as hear from a few scientists & researchers describing their instruments & goals with the mission!
Be sure to stick around to the end when you get to see a really cool view of the approach & landing!

Looks like 'aerosols' were blowing into the cockpit in the starboard rear during the landing sequence.
Another awesome video...thank you!
Amazing how much they have to turn that yoke back and forth just to stay lined up on that landing. Big airframe, big control arc.
Great!
Thanks Dan- thanks for watching!!
@@UnusualAttitudes keep it up man!
Bro the clouds that day made it that much more epic!
Sometimes you get lucky! Thanks for watching buddy!
I had no idea the C-130 was such a tight cockpit. Barely room to fart in there.
Go Coast Guard! Lol I mean NASA ;) I've commented on a few of your videos and I'm curious on how you actually become a FE? Everytime I google how to become a flight engineer it comes up with how to become a pilot. Do you have to be a pilot first or how does it work? If its too much to explain then maybe a vid idea? Thanks !
Ha! Yeah, good ol’ 1717! Great idea for a video; “How to become a Flight Engineer”. I’m retired Navy, and I went to P-3 flight engineer school in Jacksonville, FL. It was a Navy ‘pipeline’, as they called it. Sadly, there isn’t much need for Flight Engineers these days; aircraft are so automated, they’re getting rid of the center seat. Lucky for me, the legacy aircraft will stick around for a while, giving me something to do for a few more years!
Thanks for watching & for the comment!
CalFire got 7 of Coast Guard old H's and will start using them are tankers now! Cool vids btW cheers!
Raidergeek34 Thanks man, I appreciate it! I guess I’d better start checking to see if CALFIRE is looking for FEs for their Hercs! Haha Thanks for watching!
@@UnusualAttitudes NP! Just check out DynCorp International they do work for CALFIRE
