The C-130/Herkybird/Fat Albert Thread

Post by Ben Montgomery » Mon Oct 05, 2009 10:36 am

Seeing as we are having a deluge of "Post your shots" threads, I thought that it would be nice to see members shots of the C-130. Nice open topic, hopefully everyone has something they can contribute.

So, as many photos as you want (but not ten of the same airframe, that gets boring!), from any era, of any Military C-130.

Looking forward to some fantastic (and varied!) photos. :thumbs:

Ryan - those are all fine, bar the two funny nose MC-130s (too big, sorry!)

Great participation so far guys, some brilliant C-130 shots here!
