Getting up close and personal. Check out the deflection on the intake and leading edges. I love the pointing from the guys inside too.

I tried a search for this and didnt see anything.

Instead of just pointing i'd have held up a wrench or something and pertended to toss it into the intake. Bet he'd have backed off in a hurry

good pics though

Yes...the other Herc pilots heard a horrific noise coming from the aft end of the the lead Herc and got in close to see what it was.
