RIAT part 7: The heavies are departing

Postby Mr. Bones » Wed Jul 20, 2005 2:53 pm

Some snaps of heavies turning onto runway 27 during the departure day.

Personally I think the USCG uses the most beautiful Hercs out there.

Gotta love how clean the USCG keeps their machines.  That's a stunning Herc!

The KCs are a sight, too!
