keep it coming Coff.
I certainly remember seeing the stretching going on at Marshall.
The
Js we took delivery of were built as long ones. Odd that the Mk 5 was the short one!
I found a copy of the Royal Air Force Public Relations Magazine No 7 from 1985 when searching the summer house for toys for grandchildren at the w/e. It is quite C130 heavy including bits on Snoopy and ALMs role. I am sure there are a couple of AA62s mates mentioned.
Force levels at the time 74,000 and 260+ Tonkas
When this dries up I will fire up the scanner!
