Yeah A400M, if anyone lives long enough to see it fly. ;-)

there was victory and optimism. Now that the news is filtered through
the mainstream media here in America, all we hear is death and
destruction and quagmire..." Ann Coulter

Which is a problem.

Since I'm seeing this (I'm the original poster, posting from an AOL account I
use while away from my normal comp), I may as well note that I was NOT
including the various models of the C130 in my question.:-) Rather, in a
PBEM/RPG/simulation context, I'm pondering creating an a/c to replace the C130.
Particularly in a short-field context (I note that the UN, SMOM, and several
other relief-type agencies appear to use C130s; A possible customer base
suggests itself, thus...).
