Today I got a nice postcard from the USA! The card shows a view of the plane called "Fat Albert" taking off. It is a Lockheed C 130 Hercules assigned to the US Navy's Blue Angels demonstration team. It transports their equipment and personnel and also takes part in air shows. It can demonstrate a rocket-assisted take-off, during which small rockets are attached to its fuselage in order to take-off from small runways. Nice plane stamps were also used! Thanks Eric!
