Dude doesn't G-LOC during his ride....might have helped that he's a bit portly, but impressive all the same.

I have always wondered how that happened.I was impressed with the LT in casual conversation mode while pulling 6-7 Gs. That is fitness.
32,000 lbs of thrust? I thought the Blues had already transitioned to the more powerful "C" model w/ 18,000 lb thrust engines.
They may have some "C" models, but the older Charlies (which is what the Blues probably have) don't have the big motors. It wasn't until a couple lots later that they were installed.

Someone asked me if all Blue Angel pilots were prior Hornet guys to which I answered no but I could not think of Blue Angel pilot from the Prowler community. I know the Harriers and Tomcats have sent in recent years. Does anyone know of any previous Prowler guys?

One of the RAG instructors when I was in VAQ-129 was 'looked at' for a short while by the Blues but I don't think it was ever very serious, he certtainly didn't seem to think so. I asked him if there ever had been a Prowler guy and he said there had not been and would not likely ever be one.
