The calculations of the intensity and width of Saturn's equatorial jet carried out by the author prior to the Voyager flybys and basing on the assumption of the outward angular momentum transport due to a different buoyancy of counterrotating eddies are compared with the Voyager data. The agreement between the predicted jet parameters and the observations evidences the predominance of the above mechanism of angular momentum transport and the validity of the other underlying assumptions (the cylindrical pattern of rotation, the similarity between the convection parameters on Jupiter and Saturn, the existence at a moderate depth of a rigidly rotating, inner magnetized ionosphere).
