I guarantee they don't care, as I will not in about 2 weeks!
I thought it was pretty cool to find the real world examples of AI we have in the packages, sometimes actually flying on them.

Not too bad, you have earplugs/iPod plugs in, so nothing like a civilian airliner. The seats in the middle are better than the sides.
C-130's on the hand are cramped with all seats installed, inter-lacing knees, seats are old so the fabric is sagging.

I prefer the seats on the side myself. I am kinda tall and there isn't much room between the seats in the middle.

Do you have to rotate seats, so people in the middle have to move to outside?
are the weapons empty?

Pretty much first come, first serve on the seats when they load the aircraft. Weapons are not loaded and will normally have a "bolt block" or the bolt is completely removed depends on how anal the crew want to be that day.

Attach a safety line and drop the back hatch

This is one up in the front of the cargo area, which is better than the C-130. In the C-130 it is a bucket on the ramp with a curtain.
