Cosford's Hercules goes on display

摘要

Lockheed C-130K Hercules C.3XV202 has become the latest aircraft to go on display at the RAF Museum Cosford in Shropshire. The aircraft was moved from the airfield to the museum site on December 13 and placed in its permanent external display space. After defueling the Hercules, it took three hours for a team of 15 technicians and RAF personnel to safely move it into position. One of the largest aircraft in the collection, XV202 made its final flight from Brize Norton, Oxfordshire, into Cosford in August courtesy of 47 Squadron. Since then it has been undergoing maintenance on the airfield.
