Are you freakk'n kidding me?????? Seriously..go with the AC-130E/H model. it has more guns ( well depending on the era) and has had a MUCH more colorful history.....the U-boat does not work as well as the older H model just my .02

oh, but if you do whip me up one too

Civilians:

All the North Americans like TransAm, MarkAir, ...
+ Saudia oc and nc, Ethiopian and many others

Military:
Everything that comes in a multitone-camo like Spain, Thai, Saudi Air Force and many dozen others.

If there'll be somewhen a correct mould for it, I'd especially love to see a herkybird of the Hellenic Air Force.

I second the motion for the NWT Air. Brings back memories of when I was a "ramp rat" in Inuvik.

Took a ride up front on one to the airport at Tuk. The runway at that time was a gravel surface and subbase. Quite different from landing on concrete to say the least! .

Dude,

This is like a wet dream...don't tease me.
This is what I have been waiting on for a long time!!
but I will make a short list of some must haves in the C-130/L-100 Herks.

First of all, please take time to understand the differient types of C-130s there are...its sort of like how differient all the 707s are..it will ruin them if you get the body wrong for each type.

I agree with the Canadian CC-130s in the old lightning bolt colors.
...
If they can mod it to make an H model ( with the forward cargo air intake ) I would love to see USAF all colors.. also the older A-E models from the old days with bare metal and the high vis orange..to the camo, to the modern grays with the unit stripes on the tail ( the blue Dyess Tail Flash of the 40th AS and the Texas flag Dyess please ..not the red Dyaees tail flash of the 39th AS both squadrons fly the H model..but most active duty units still fly the very old E models )please for the life of me no "J" model FAKE C-130s please..they defeat the whole purpose of the aircraft.
Jarhead KC-130s would be great too ( and for that mould you can paint it like a MC-130E Shaddow..but not an early Talon)
Columbian military with the flag tail. Morocco. Belgium Indian head.

I would also like the special bodies.. AC-130s, MC-130 Talon I and IIs.

If they do get into the L-100-10s,-20s,-30s then I would like to see the civ. colors, Lynden air, Delta, Alaska, Mark Air, Interior, Transamerica, Southern Air, Cargo masters, Heavy Lift, Evergreen Int. ,Pac. Western, TAAG, CTA, SAFAir ( red white blue)...and this beautiful Bastard Ethiopian Airlines ( who runs the drug KHAT to the eastern countries of Africa)...but it has a pretty color.

I want one of these even a custom will do .. but I really think it should be a regular release..

Our unit has had more combat and combat support flying hours since nov. 2001 then any other C-130 Unit flying in either Afghanistan or Iraq.

How about this one..
When the C-130s at Pope AFB N. C. were under ACC all the aircraft on the base had the shark mouth...now that they are back under AMC they went to a griffon on the the side of the plane. oh and by the way the 40th AS used to be stationed at Pope from Aug 1974 until july 1993 when they moved to Dyess AFB.

I love the Shark Mouth.

A few grey, olive military green, camouflaged and metal w/o markings would do the trick.
Some generic SAR and Air Fire-fighters for any country 1/400 airport.

Thumbs up The only Herc that really matters to me...

It doesn't matter to me what colors you put on the damn thing, if it's a Herc I'll buy it!

But the only one that I really, really want for Christmas is from that little bitty outfit in Hotlanta, anybody able to find and post a good pic for me?


Thanks,

Don

Can't forget Southern Air's main competitor for charter work for "The Company" or "The Customer", Continental Air Services:
