USS Forrestal C-130 Hercules Carrier Landing Trials

This was done in Oct. or Nov. 1963. This C130 Hercules is now in the National Museum of Naval Aviation at NAS Pensacola, Florida. The USS Forrestal is now decomissioned and awaiting to be scrapped.

Not a normal thing. Wondering what the occasion was: emergency, missed airport, fun, pick up girlfriend, etc.

A couple of months ago the topic came up and a few people took issue with the possibility of a 130 operating off a carrier. When I stumbled on to this video, I thought it would beat any argument I could make.
