Did you actually fly it, or did you fly "in" it? I'm probably heading off to Army flight school so I was just curious if you fly.
btw, 140 is a lot different on a road than flying over marshes, rivers, and the barrier islands.

You need to try a max effort takeoff in a c-130 with JATO bottles. Jato = jet assisted takeoff. It's pretty cool. The damn thing is off the ground in 500 feet or less. It climbs to 500 feet AGL in less than 5 seconds. AGL= above ground level. The Blue Angels have a c-130 that does this all the time for thier shows. Its called "Fat Albert".
