Heavy Chain was much more than testing.

T001 is temporary 001 buildings get power and phones lines airplane don't.

Les is a member here, and the last I heard he was working at the Sim.

Rich & Kathy Clark

Reading about the Combat Talons going to the boneyard got me to thinking and reminiscing. Anyone that has set foot on a Herk knows that each one has its own personality. The MC-130Es are no different; each one has a unique and often quirky personality. The MC-130Es also had an attitude. This attitude grew from many years of overuse and abuse. The crews that drove these chariots pushed them to their limits (and beyond) every chance they had, not just for the thrill, but in preparation for what might come next. Many of us have chosen to retire to places that are warm and sunny. I hope the once mighty Talons enjoy their time in the sun. I also hope that all the old Talon crew members stop by the boneyard and visit their old friends.

Congratulations and enjoy the afterlife my friend.
