I have been able to recover and restore the VA Benefits discussion forum. The post counts are a bit off but I think it is all there. http://www.c-130hercules.net/index.php?/forums/forum/66-va-benefits/

I have added a C-130 video section to the site and have added a few videos to it. There will be more to come but for now, you can check it out via this link: C-130 Videos or access it from the main menu (top of page, below the header)-->Reference-->C-130 Videos. --Casey

I have restored the "Today in C-130 History" block to the main page (just below the "C-130 Forum Post Feed") and fixed the "Today in C-130 History" Database page. The Database page is not visually perfect but I believe all the functionality is there. If not, please let me know. I'll catch the visuals later. --Casey

I have moved the site to a new server at Dreamhost.com and I have changed the front page layout. To my knowledge, everything is up and running. You should notice that the site is much faster now and as I perform a few more tweaks, we should see additional improvement. Sorry for any issues that the move may have caused and for the absence of the gallery for the past couple of weeks. --Casey

I have added a new page Latest C-130 Fleet Updates to the C-130 Database. It displays the latest update for each aircraft sorted by date (the date for update, not the entered date). You can view the entire profile for an aircraft by clicking the blue aircraft c/n. I hope you find it useful. --Casey

As you all know, this site is about more than the C-130. Discussions regarding Veteran benefits are quite popular and through these discussions, several visitors have receive valuable, even life changing, assistance. Therefore, I found it worthwhile to create a new forum for these discussions. The new forum US Armed Forces Veterans Discussion is divided into two sections: VA Benefits and Other Benefits. I looked through the forums and move several threads into the VA Benefits forum. If there are other threads that should be moved to this area, let me know and I will move them as well. Additionally, if you see a need for additional forums, let me know and I will loo…

A little bit of site news for those interested. I have secured the rights to the domain C-130Hercules.com and I have forwarded the domain to C-130Hercules.net. The site can now be accessed via either address but the site's official name will remain C-130Hercules.net. --Casey

After much trial and error, I have a beta version of the C-130 Database Aircraft Profile data entry system and approval system in operation. As I am sure you all can imagine, entering histories for 2,400 pus aircraft is quite an undertaking for one person. It is my hope that the community will join in and help me push the project forward. Please help me by adding/updating entries and/or encouraging persons with firsthand knowledge of the aircraft to add entries and/or funnel info to us. Here's how it works: 1) On the right side of each history entry, there is a pencil icon and a plus symbol icon. Members who are logged in can click them to edit the entry (pe…

I was doing some maintenance on the site tonight and discovered that the LSN permissions were messed up. If you have been unable to access some or all of the issues, please accept my apology. The error should now be resolved. If you have never "thumbed through" the LSN, I suggest you do. Most anyone is sure to find something, if not many things, that interests them. http://www.c-130hercules.net/content.php?r=221-lockheed-service-news

All, I have moved the Google custom search to the left side of the main page and set it to display the results in a new window. If you have not discovered/used it yet, check it out. It is best way to locate info on the site. It is so powerful that it will match words in attached/hosted Excel docs, Word docs, PDF docs etc. Opinions? Casey
