Rode quite a few of these birds back in the early ‘60s—they were a great improvement over the R4Qs!

I haven’t seen any speculation on the cause of the crash. Anybody heard anything or have ideas?

This is from the CNN wire. In all probability, there was never a crash at all, given the dubious credibility of that news manufacturing organization.

Aren’t these the tankers that were supposed to be replaced?

Probably had to cut the maintenance budget to provide funds for Gender Reassignment Institutional Preference Education (GRIPE).

Either that or for resodding the General’s golf course.

The C-130 platform is the most reliable aircraft in the world.

Period.
