This Lockheed C-130H Hercules blongs to the Swedish Airforce since March 1965, when the Swedish Air Force hired a C-130E for evaluation. It still carried its USAF serial (40546) together with the Swedish roundels. As early as in September the same year, the aircraft was bought and was given the designation TP 84 and the individual SwAF/n 84001. On April 19th this Hercules landed on the airfield of the Lund University School of Aviation in Ljungbyhed, Sweden. The pilot interviewed is talking about their visit to the school, meeting the former Viggen -and Gripen pilots reeducating to the transport division of the Swedish Airforce. He is also talking about the fact that it takes about 10 minutes to do a complete star-up of the airplane. |
