Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |

Its nice to see one of our former AMARC inmates that was a sleeping beauty for so long at the DMI Yard down south in Tucson made it back to life again.
162313 ex. EC-130Q (VQ-4) allocated N9239G (ntu) arrived AMARC 23SEP91 and was assigned 2G016
So long my dear friend.

A C-130 is a tactical aircraft and color on an aircraft (especially the too big and too bright old roundels) is not tactically sound. That is why they were changed (on request of the aircrews).

Aircraft colors and markings are always subject to trends. So who knows...future trends may hold some surprises for us. In this case, in my view, any change in colors will be an improvement...
