Lockheed C-130 Hercules

Link is blank! Talking about c-130 one flew over here tonight! will never get tired of that bird.

Oh right, works for me try the one in my post further up maybe?

C-130 is certainly desirable, but my wish is still for a Stealth F-117 Nighthawk.

For some reason I have doubts that we will ever see a C-130, C-17 or CN-235, or my favorite the C-295 AWACS.

Why? Because there has never been any military freight plane in any flight simulator, and almost zero civilian freight planes either

C-17

Slightly off-topic

Join his Discord - lots of WIP in there.

Except for the C-130 for FS 2004, FSX, Prepar3D, and a free mod for DCS.

Never.

I’d strongly recommend you follow Delta Simulations on Discord as the moderator mentioned. They are making decent progress on the freeware C-17!

Hey Soapy - the discord links you’ve posted in this thread don’t work if you’re not a member of the discord you’re linking to. Could you please provide the invite link to the the discord? Would love to take a look.

The c-130 is in the community highlights section under # kenny

Also they are in the Ouroboros Jets server as Project X

There isn’t a lot of information, they seem to be keeping it pretty close to their chests until they have something substantial to announce.

C130 where is it?
When will we get that bird???

Goodness, where have you been? In my 34 years of using Microsoft Flight Simulator on almost a daily basis, I can look back to flying military and civilian cargo aircraft in abundance in the various incarnations of the title.

Without thinking too hard about it, here are a few.

Andover
Argosy
Hercules
Belfast
Beverly
Bristol Freighter
C-141 Starlifter
C-5 Galaxy
C-47 Dakota
C-124 Globemaster
C-119 Flying Boxcar
C-23 Sherpa

And many more from Russia, France, Italy, etc.

The third party ecosystem for Microsoft Flight Simulator has had a rich association with military and civil cargo aircraft for around 28 years. I would say the best is still to come.

Please do the C130 as a famous flyer. The aircraft is legendary.
