Thanks for that re-post Fred, looks LOTS better than the 'stand on end' view the edited one was.

But the script rather answers my question of why did they do it. The really DID consider the C-130 for a COD aircraft, despite all the caveats about room on the deck etc.

Fokker's F28, the DC-9 and, IIRC, even Boeing's 737 were considered as COD aircraft...
