Yes, for some this may be "off-topic"... :twisted:

Blue Angels: No plans to rename aircraft named for Cosby character
As colleges sever ties to Bill Cosby, the Blue Angels have no plans to rename their C-130 "Fat Albert" aircraft.

"Fat Albert" is a popular character from a decade-long series created by the 77-year-old comedian, who recently has been accused of sexually assaulting more than a dozen women as far back as the 1960s. He has not been charged with a crime.
"With all the fuss and muss with Bill Cosby, do you think that the U.S. Navy's Blue Angels will consider renaming their C-130 aircraft from "Fat Albert" to something else?" asked R.J. Roy of Edgewater.
Lt. j.g. Amber Lynn Daniel, spokeswoman for the Navy's flight demonstration squadron, said in an email there is no discussion on renaming the C-130.
