Amazing "book."
The C-130 was never my assigned aircraft, but I logged more hours in the C-130 than any of my assigned aircraft over my 30-year USAF career. Two of may assigned a/c were the F-15D and the F-111F.
The C-130 was designed to carry somewhat less than 100 troops, with a crew of five (with the C-130J model, a crew of three. Two of the original five-member crew replaced by computers in the newest and current model). I wonder if anyone knows the record number of human passengers carried by any one C-130 -- and when /where that record was set.
