Pr00ne - just for info, 30 (dirty thirty as Herod refers) is not 'long gone' as you suggest. It is in a 'period off transition' between operating the C130J and the A400M. It is currently at minimum manning but still operating alongside its sister squadron, LXX operating the the Airbus A400M Atlas C1 at Brize. The stand-up to full numbers again is dependant on the build-up of frontline Atlas crews.
Thanks all and Ventre a Terre.
