Angel Flight Video by Radney Foster Featuring the C-130
Like most avgeeks I am a sucker for a good airplane video. While one of these videos is just a compilation of pictures, those pictures, along with the words to the song brought tears to my eyes. Maybe it is my current position, but it just really hit home for me. It truly is the most sacred work that we do on the C-130.
It is only four minutes long so please take a minute and watch it. I actually found a couple of different versions people have made. There are even more on YouTube.
You are gone, but never forgotten.

Huge props to Radney Foster for writing such a moving song.
Yes, that vid just gets me! I added it to my post, “Flying a Fallen Hero” for Memorial Day this year. I think you’ve read it, but if not, here’s the link: http://capnaux.blogspot.com/2013/05/memorial-day-special.html
Here’s to a great new year, one that’s full of pilot licenses! 😉
I did in fact read that post. In fact I told my friends about it when they showed me this song. It is one of my favorite things that you have written. I honestly can’t even imagine what that would be like. One of our loadmasters here told me he has done it a few times and that it is really hard.
