Zero Zero: Flying the C-124("Ole Shakey")

[RugersGR8]

I saw this on another website and thought I would pass it along. I am not a pilot/don't fly, but this might being interesting to others. Evidently the C-124 also goes by the name "Ole Shakey" from what I gathered on the other website.

"Ole Shakey". A few hundred thousand rivets flying around in loose formation.

Wow! Gives a man more confidence in professional pilots. It would have taken three men to lift me from the seat after the pucker factor took hold.

Just slide off to the side. When you hear the vacuum release, you're good to go!

PS: To avoid an embarrassing situation, don't forget to cinch your sphincter back up as soon as you are free of the seat!

Capital bit of flying there. I was never that good.
