The Wyoming Air National Guard’s 153rd Airlift Wing has received the first of four additional C-130 Hercules cargo aircraft the unit will get under BRAC 2005. The Tribune-Eagle reports that this first one came from Air Force Reserve Command’s 302nd Airlift Wing at Peterson AFB, Colo. With its new Herks, the Wyoming unit will have 12 airlifters.
A prototype aircraft tug being tested out at Holloman Air Force Base, N.M. could save MQ-9 Reaper maintainers time and money and cut down on safety risks on the flightline.
