Hi all, does anyone know how long the Australian C-130's are here for?

Hi all,

went to BHX for a little visit and was happily surprised by this being dragged out of the hangar for a 10 minute engine run.



is the mil serial for it going to be WT001 or will it be something else?

many thanks

Phil

Excellent images.
Was this a planned visit or a diversion.

it was a planned visit and night stop, what wasnt planned was that the aircraft went tech on arrival and today (sat) they had to send another down with a spare part. Will post pic's shortly of that one.

Lovely, detailed shots.
Can you inform what the Red/Amber/Green flash/canister is which shows in the P1 window?

It was the pilot's drinks bottle, she grabbed it when they landed and packed it away with all the rest of the equipment onboard.

Thanks for the comment's guy's,

to be honest i was surprised they said yes to the cockpit shot, not much inside those things either, i had to bend down a bit to walk through the cabin.

thanks again
