Hammocks. That's the solution.

Apart from when my mum had a dodgy washing machine I've never experienced this vibrating floor phenomena.
What sensation does it give you?

That is a solution often employed on a C-130 and it works a treat.

Let the plane fly and vibrate and don't worry too much:

never become more than vibrations in air." (Josh Pyke)

As promissed some prop loss pics. IIRC it happened midway between IAD and YQX at FL270. There were some injuries but no loss of life. I've seen lots of C-130 survivable damage and this is one of the worst.
