That one, tonight at EGGW landing it was loud and was like oo, wow!

Pretty cool, I saw it and the tail made me think of AA but then I was like, uh AA don't fly from EGGW and then I looked again and noticed the tail gate sharply / like that << and Knew it was a c-130!

Never seen one before :P

I love seeing planes land/fly and looking at them, usually see them before flying on holiday.

There's a place sort of near me called Duxford Airfield, and they have loads of planes, both army and commercial on the field. Some even fly every now and again. It's quite an interesting place :)

Nice going Myke. The C-130 is one cool aircraft in the air force. :)
