If at first you don't succeed...

This was the fifth outing of the year to try and catch one of the Dutch C-130H at Cambridge Airport - this was the first one where not only did I not miss it, it (C-130H G-988) also landed at the correct end of the runway - admittedly time was tight, so I ended up with the sun on the wrong side of the plane, but I'm still happy.

Thank you, these legacy Hercules certainly give a bit more of a smokey approach than the -J models.
