This is Babe...a C-130 A model
This is the first multi engine aircraft that I worked on. I worked my way from mechanic to Aircrew as a loadmaster on her. She took me places that I had only dreamed of. She is gone now, a pile of aluminum in Viet Nam.
Great Duty...don't be fooled by its pretty scenery. This was during the Nicaraguan Crisis
Well it looks so nice, and it was. For the little time there was between missions.
These are the two ladies I spent my time with.
These two lovely ladies are the Lockheed C5a and the C-130. There are no finer aircraft in the world. They kept me busy and took me to far away lands.
