Spanning generations

Trojan1981, yes the 'Bou does. So also the C130. I joined the RAAF in February 1958, the same year the C130A came into RAAF service. I operated the A-E&H models. Picked up A97-001 & A97-012 in July & October 1978 respectively. Former A97-212, now N131EC, is still being flown in the USA out of Louisiana by Earl Cherry Aviation. As far as I am aware it is the only C130A still flying using Aeroproducts propellers. Google up N131EC and you will see the old girl if you are interested. There are several references to it.
