casey Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Charlotte may not be home to the Air National Guard's C-130 planes much longer. The plane based at Charlotte Douglas International Airport are often used to fight wildfires and have operated out of Charlotte since the 1960s. But starting in 2018 the Air Force wants to station C-17 planes in Charlotte instead. They're much larger and are used to transport large, heavy cargo. Officials have not said where the C-130s may end up.
