Thai Flooding
I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

Re: Thai Flooding
Wow. I find it hard to believe they could get those C130s out of there before the flood waters got that high.
Re: Thai Flooding
At least one of those C-130's wasn't airworthy. Something tells me the missing #4 is going to be the least of their problems.

Re: Thai Flooding
It's still fly. I had a pilot tell me once that the C-130 is a Tri-engine aircraft with an Airborne Spare 

Re: Thai Flooding
Ever read the stories, unfortunately too many accident reports, of the specially trained crews who ferry 4 engine aircraft on 3 engines? There is a special technique that can be used to do this apparently. Not my cup of tea though for sure.
