[QUOTE="MKP777, post: 2837600, member: 114383"] Y'all remember that half radomed C-130 the USAF used to use to recover balloons? It had those big tongs on the front for grabbing the cable. (We're talking way back). The USAF took those tongs off and gave that bird to the USCG back in the day. Its number was 1451. By the time I ended up in the USCG they were still flying that plane. I logged 1400+ hours as a radio operator and later navigator on that. Squeaking, cracking, groaning old bird, it still took us through tropical depressions and even a couple typhoons. We flew it over the Bering sea many times when we went up to support Kodiak a couple times. It took very rough weather SO many times. It always got us home. But after flying on any Herc, you don't stop vibrating for a week. LOL [/QUOTE]
