This thread is just to make us jealous.
Edit. I have been on flights in C-130, KC-135, P3. KC-135 boom operator view while refueling is pretty amazing. |

Let's see.......a C-141, CH-47s, Hueys, and (then) brand-new UH-60 Blackhawks.

only one, B-17 and while takeoff and startup was smoky and not as smooth, the landing was smoother than any plane I have ever been on. I would love to fly in one, especially if you could sit in any of the gunner seats. they had the tail blocked off, and the ball turret, but you could walk around once in flight, the side gunners they put lexan windows so you could not fall out. However the top turret and the nose was accessible and this one had a observation hatch that was open on top and you could stick your head out of it which I did at 220 mph. was a little awkward walking through the bomb bay, its one foot in front of the other being so narrow basically. was $300 a flight then , now its $500-$600 depending on the price of fuel. Flew along the beach at 500 ft or so. |
