‘Mighty Planes’ TV show

Rocket assisted Hercules LC-130 SkibirdQuest TV channel has a great new series on at the moment called ‘Mighty planes’ – featuring some of the largest or most fascinating aircraft currently gracing our skies. This image is of the LC-130 ‘Ski bird’ which uses rockets to aid take-off on a short runway.

Certainly a show worth watching for you aviation nuts… find out more here.

C-130s and rockets have not always had a great history, as the below video demonstrates.

I'm a marketing manager in my very very late 20's - but that's not 'me', I love aviation - currently working towards my PPL - after that, who knows.. certainly more flying, but can I crack into the aviation industry as a pilot?
