RP Ops made sure that will never happen.

Let’s agree it was a team effort.

Yay Team RPOpsArmy!

The Army made sure that won’t ever happen.

And what a stupid, stupid move that was.

It was quite shortsighted. Those building could have reasonable gone anywhere else than on the runway…

What kind of numbers could possibly make sense for us?
We currently have 5 (?) and they are roughly 18ish yrs old?

I thought we used to operate about 12 C-130 E's out of Namao through the 70's but YTZ would probably have better insight.
How many of the C-330's are going west?

C-17 production rumours are starting to look a bit more true:

Boeing "Encouraged" By C-17 Production Restart Discussions

Congress recently asked the USAF for a briefing on the feasibility of buying new C-17s amid major strain on the existing fleet.

I’m ready to have my heart broken again.

Half the fleet will be at edmonton international airport
