I was gonna pick the BONE too or B-ONE. There still producing new C-130's. There's talk of a C-130J for the Fat Albert. Some wicked looking props right there. Would be able to add to the show since the J model is more maneuverable.AARR wrote:J T wrote:I'm partial to the B1 myself...
Ditto! A devastating weapons platform. Problem is these new aircraft cost so much to build that it's more economical to upgrade older aircraft. In fact, they are still upgrading the old C130 prop planes rather than replace them with newer versions of jet planes.
C-130 ugly? Whaaat, never heard such a thing.GTWFRED wrote:I spent the better part of 4 years as a crewman on one of the Air Forces "butt ugly planes" the C-130. Besides trains, I love old military planes.
