United States Marine Corps (USMC) Lockheed C-130T Hercules, Nick-Named ‘Fat Albert’, BuNo 164763, Cn 382-5258, does a low level ‘beat-up’ at Seattle Boeing Field (KBFI) on 31Jul2015. (A White-Skin B737 is visible at rear.) ‘Fat Albert’ (in Blue Angels livery) was flying at Seattle, along with the US Navy Blue Angels Aerobatic Team, during the city’s Sea Fair activities. It was disappointing to have missed RATO take-offs, performed by the pre-decessor aircraft 151891, which is now preserved at the USN Aviation Museum at Pensacola Florida. (Note: the Diameter of a C-130 fuselage is 3.22 Meters = 10.56 Feet. Scaling the height of the lower fuselage above the runway gives a ‘beat-up’ height of 8.8 feet!)
