It's wild to watch the C5a's doing touch and go's while your driving on hwy 12. I swear they look like they're going to fall out of the ski....

I told you this story??


Dave Evans and I...flying a Cessna 152 to Nut Tree.....

"35Hotel...please be aware of C5-A turbulence ahead"

"roger.."
(we see the C5-A way off in the distance...and totally blow off the ATC)

about 10 minutes later...totally forgot about the warning..


WHAM(Drops 20 feet in the sky)...WHAM WHAM WHAM...(goes up 10 feet, down 10 feet, back up 10 feet.....checks tooth fillings)

HOLY fawk! WHAT WAS THAT?

One of us realizes...it was the C5-A turbulence from the warning 10 minutes earlier.

After cleaning our shorts....we had a much deeper respect for C5-A turbulence.
The last words spoken before a YouTube video is filmed: "Hold my beer, now watch this..."
