Thanks, guys O0

@Bass.......yep. Landing the C130 on a carrier is one of my favorite flight sim challenges. The landing is a little "busy", but it really isn't that difficult because of the massive amount of reverse thrust the aircraft can generate :D

How far from the fantail did you have to stab the f2 button? I bet you have some good skid marks as well! I have landed a Lear45 on a carrier but only after LOTS of mistakes. :dance: :clap: :clap:

Actually, I was probably beginning to reverse the throttles right about where the aircraft is when
the shot was taken.........and then as soon as I hear the tires "screech" I lay on the brakes.
No spoilers......I don't think they really do any good at such low speed. I've never tried a Learjet before :shock: I'm always up for a challenge though 8-)

Here's another video of an interesting experiment involving a C 130: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKCl3lfAx1Q
