TRANSALL C-160 (GAF5040)

Hope they are in radio contact !

Reminds me of a parent encouraging a child.

Kid: "Look, look I'm doing it."

Parent: "You sure are, you got this kiddo."

Super Photo Fabian..........

thank you, Ken.

C160 ...AND A400 ...!!

Airbus A-400M Atlas and Transall C-160. Nice!

The Luftwaffe would take up our regular airlift channel missions out of Mildenhall while our C130's were down range during Desert Shield/Storm. The C160's were pretty cool. They would be in a Cargo/Pax configuration like our C130's. The loads were slightly less but I could still clear out a good number of Space A pax and cargo out. Despite wartime, MAC was still run like an airline and the show must go on. I learned a lot really fast as a 19 year old A1C about Aerial Port operations which in tech school said I wouldn't need to know until I was a SSgt, lol.
