Great thread, SAM. I've flown many a mile in C-130's. Vast difference in the mindset of C-130 crews from bomber crews or rescue. The fighter and bomber crews had that "steely-eyed killer" air to them. The helo pilots had massive inferiority complexes and the transport boys just wanted to find some chow and a beer.

I was a passenger on C-130's a few times. Last time was when I flew from Fort Dix to the Azores and then to Germany on one. Definately a different ride than a 727
