    An extremely rare visitor RNZAF (NZ7003) C-130 Hercules arrives from Brize Norton, UK as KIW079 ''KIWI 079'' and stays for the night. On the next morning, the sight is gorgeous as there are two C-130's on the apron, of which the second belongs to RCAF.
    After some time, the flight crew prepares the aircraft to taxi to further from the terminal area as the aircraft is loaded with hazardous cargo. Later on, it departs to Sliač, Slovakia as KIW079.
    Retired from service on 10th of February 2023.

    We are so proud of our airmen and women from New Zealand. Thank you for taking this high quality video. The crew seem to be based at Tampere-Pirkkala for at least a few days, flying to Sliač each day, in co-operation with the International Donor Co-ordination Centre (IDCC) in Stuttgart.

    Back in the late 80s during the Great Aussie pilots strike, I had the dubious pleasure of flying in an RAAF C130 from Melbourne to Launceston, Tasmania.
    Still remember the noise, smell, webbing seats and ration pack we were issued.
    Return flight was on a Hawker Siddeley Navigation Trainer.
    We were told not to play with the consoles we were sitting next to.

      They are bloody good pilots. NZ has so many of the best motorsport competitors because they have no fighter jets too fly.

      Ah 7003. I have very fond memories of 7003 both from when i was in service & as a civilian (7003 medivacs me from Nelson to Christchurch 8 years ago as the Lifeflight Pilots were busy & there had been mixed force exercises nearby) also received wonderful care from NZ Army medical trauma team for the journey. Shame that defence is such a low priority to multiple NZ Governments. Thanks for sharing.

    7003 just decommissioned after 58 years of service. The first of the RNZAF C130s to decommission.
    New C130j-30s will start to arrive by the end of the year.

    Hieno video mutta mitä mieltä itse olet siitä että jaat videon jossa kuvataan tarkkaan mitä materiaalia ja milloin kuormataan sotilaskoneeseen tässä maailmantilanteessa. Tämä on lapasyöttö esimerkiksi venäjän tiedustelulle koska melko helppo arvata mihin kuorma on menossa…

      En olettanutkaan että asiallesi vihkiytyneenä olisit valmis muuttamaan toimintaasi edes yhteisen turvallisuuden vuoksi. Jos olisin sinä jatkaisin kuvaamista ja julkaisua mutta editoisin pois kohdat joissa näkee mitä kyytiin lastataan tai pystyy tunnistamaan henkilöstöä joka lastauksen suorittaa.

      Olet ihan oikeassa siinä, että rahtia voi nähdä videolla, mutta mitään vahvistusta ei videolla ole rahdin sisällöstä, tai siitä lastattiinko se koneeseen.
