You can hardly call the arrival of a Belgian military plane like the C-130 Hercules a stealth approach, but I was VERY pleased I've picked out the right unway for once...

So, my first active military shots...

Because we don't have any money!  ;D

No, seriously, replacements are ordered, the A400 will take over from the Herc in a while...

Just ask the RAF about fighting two 21st century conflicts using 40+ year old Hercs! Certainly helps speed their retirement! Of course the A400M will replace them...


...sometime in the next 50 years!
