bobdaley Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) I got this from Marc Payne. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/tx/7614755.html PETERSBURG, Va. — An Air Force C-130 Hercules is heading to Fort Lee, where it will be used to help train airmen. The 116-foot-long aircraft is scheduled to arrive by truck at the Petersburg base on Saturday morning from Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. Fort Lee officials say the large load could cause travel delays. The aircraft will travel with a Virginia State Police escort along Interstate 64 East to Interstate 295 South and state Route 36. The Hercules hulk will be used in traffic management and aircraft transportation courses. Cheers Marc This is 58-1341 ex USCG 1341 3542 There are also two herks we talked about earlier moving from Little Rock to the US Navy on the East Coast. One appears to be 68-10948 and the destination maybe Pax River, anyone who can confirm them would be appreciated.

Muff Millen Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Bob, do you show another C-130 at Ft Lee? When passing thru thee last summer I saw one parked behind some trees and a building on the north side of the base. Muff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff Millen Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Thanks Bob, Google Earth shows it real well parked between 2nd and 3rd streets. Actually on East side of base. Muff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
