I have been in a C-130 a couple of time when there was an engine failure on takeoff.

She kept right on climbing.

This is somehow, someway, pilot error.

The C-130 is known to be reliable and resilient, maybe the most robust plane ever built.

Hell, they’re still building them.

Still the aircraft of choice for the Hurricane Hunters, I believe.
