I have seen a close convoy of C130 low level over E. Lincs a few years ago….in the half light early hours one weekend… The first one roared over the house and must have woken me…I found my way to my south window to see a mystifying mass of lights…then the next aircraft roared over and the source of the lights started to become clear…did I count 15 aircraft in total.? routing North.

Too young to remember the Hastings as a transport…..but did used to see the T5 Hastings locally….especially jubilee time 1977.
