C-130 Hercules on a carrier - possible ??
Hi !
I just saw a picture of a C-130 Hercules on the deck of a Carrier !! The picture seems to be from around the 70s, no other planes else on deck. No other description was provided, it was on an image board ... Is this a nice fake or was this ever possible ? ThanX in advance, Jan

if the C-130 could answer for itself, it would say, Been There, Done That

Speaking of which do Hercs (with the exception of fat albert) still use JATOS Four turning and Eight burning ?

Not only did it not require JATO for takeoff, it took off from its stopping point on the landing. 40 knots of wind over the deck undoubtedly helped. -Marc -- Marc Reeve actual email address after removal of 4s & spaces is c4m4r4a4m4a4n a4t c4r4u4z4i4o d4o4t c4o4m
