C-130's at Ramstein 23/07/17.

Post by Blackbird 1313 »

Seen on Sunday 23rd July 2017 (pm) were the following visiting C-130's;

(9) 1-1236 C-130H. Kentucky ANG.
(1) 1-5738 C-130J-30. The Rock.
(1) 1-5745 C-130J-30. The Rock.
(16) 6380 BH/380. KC-130J. VMGR-252.

Also seen from Kinsbach Hill, were two other C-130's. One unknown, plus possibly another Rock machine.
They were parked in the trees, nose facing the hill. ( I think on the Hot ramps?)
I went round to the 27 end, but they were not visible.
Can anybody identify these tow aircraft.
Thanks in anticipation.

The 4 you mentioned Herks were the only visiting Herks from that day so the 2 unknown Herks must be 37AS local ones.

Cheers,
