Read in the LM Code One mag where the AF sent 26 Herks to the beer can factory this year. GRRRRR.   Here is the count: 11 MC-130H/P, 6 HC-130P, 4 AC-130H, 1 AC-130U, 4 C-130 H. Sad end for these great birds. I hear they are designing the final version of the Herk at the skunk works.... It will have 1 pilot and a DOG as the only crew members. The dog is there to bite the pilot if he touches anything. Bill:angry:

Yeah that kind of irks me when you see what was a good sight to see with US military markings and now they have some foreign 

"force de aero" painted on the side of them with some funky number and hieroglyphics that make no sense.  I wish that they were kept in this country .  Made in the US and scrapped in the US!
