FR WAR NEWS!Wow. 36 years, that’s amazing.
The Sherpa (C-23/Shorts 360) is one of the most hideously ugly aircraft in the world, BTW, but it can go a lot of places and haul a lot of stuff, so it gets the job done! I’m actually surprised at this story, I didn’t think the Army had any fixed-wing aviation assets left whatsoever.

http://www.military.com/NewContent/0,13190,SS_101904_Sherpa,00.html
BALAD AIR BASE, Iraq — Fourteen hours before takeoff, the operations center of the 171st Aviation Regiment, owner of the C-23 Sherpa, gets a call that absentee ballots must absolutely, positively get to an airfield southwest of Mosul.
Can it do it?
Of course.
