Steadfast wrote: So did the cadre tell you what speed the C - 141 slowed down to in order for you guys to jump? You didn't just jump out of a plane, you jumped out of a jet too!
If I remember my jumpmaster training correctly, C-141's jump at 120 knots.
130 is drop speed. However, 141s and 17s generally drop at 135. It is difficult to keep heavy birds at altitude at lower speeds. God Bless the old Combat Talon MC-130!
