The strengths

of Hercules

The strength of the Lockheed Hercules lies in its versatility. No other aircraft can handle as many different missions as Hercules. It can be a cargo plane, hauling up to 50,000 pounds, one day, and a passenger liner the next day. It can carry two M-2 containers—or fully assembled trucks and bulldozers, ready to drive down its low rear ramp and go to work. It can operate from short runways of sand, dirt or gravel. And whatever the mission, Hercules saves money. Its turboprop engines use far less fuel than the best fanjets. No wonder Hercules has been chosen by more than 50 nations. For more information, contact Director of International Sales, Lockheed-Georgia Company, Zone 1, Marietta, GA 30063, U.S.A. Telex: 542642, Lockheed Mara.
