Loved the video, my father was a loadmaster on 123s and 130s in the USAF,, he spoke very highly of the Australians and got to cross train on the C7.. He would have loved this video, but Agent Orange got him in 2017..
I had a couple of flights around in these wonderful aircraft in 1969 in SVN. From Nui Dat to Saigon and from Saigon back to Vung Tau. I loved the way the back ramp was dropped during flight giving the best view in the house! I did go to Saigon with the Yanks once in what we called a “Fat Rat” which was a C130 derivative which had a jet motor for take offs. Man that was an experience! At least the caribou had seats!
Awesome video! Makes me wonder if the C-27-J's in this day that use the call sign Wallaby is related. Thank you for sharing this Peter and Ron. Cheers, Leo.
