HISTORY ASPECTS:
The USAF C-130 Hercules tail number 01057 has a storied history as part of the Delaware Air National Guard and its service has encompassed various conflicts and humanitarian missions. Known for its versatility and dependability this aircraft has been a workhorse in the U.S. militarys inventory.After World War II the U.S. Military required a modern-day troop and cargo transport aircraft to replace its aging mixed fleet of piston-engine aging aircraft. On August 23 1954 the first C-130A "Hercules" took to the skies in what was heralded as the beginning of the most successful military turboprop transport to ever be conceived. The C-130 has been recognized alongside the venerable DC-3 as the worlds most versatile aircraft flying for more countrys forces than any other aircraft. The "Hercules" is capable of hauling more than 36000 lbs. of payload over distances exceeding 3800 miles. Its short field performance is truly amazing with ability to land and takeoff on unpaved unprepared runway surfaces. As the years have progressed Lockheed has made vast improvements to an already capable aircraft. As with most enhancements to aircraft much emphasis has been placed on enhanced performance and more modern cockpit technology. Advanced weaponry has also become part of the C-130s duties. Todays m
