Corgi Aviation Archive Collector Series AA31301
Lockheed C-130F Hercules Diecast Model

Limited Edition

Lockheed C-130F Hercules   8.25"   11"

This item is new, in box, direct from the manufacturer

In 1955, Navy Air Development Squadron VXE-6 was involved in the exploration of the Antarctic land mass under "Operation Deep Freeze". Initialliy equipped with Douglas R4Ds (a Navy version of the C-47 Dakota), it was then equipped with P2V Neptunes and received its first two C-130 Hercules in 1960. By the end of "Deep Freeze 612", these and a third aircraft had lifted over 1,800 tons of supplies between Pole and Byrd stations; they also flew the logrest ever trans-Antarctic flight, the 2,800-mile journey from McMurdo Sound to set up a scientific field station at Eight's Coast on Bellingshausen Sea. In February 1971, 148320 struck a snow wall at McMurdo, Antarctica, caught fire and was destroyed. It had been one of only a total of four LC-130Fs delivered to the US Navy.

We recently heard from a former Flight Engineer for this very aircraft who informs us that the aircraft was not actually destroyed in 1971 as the text describes. The aircraft was recovered and restored to flying condition in 1976.


Lockheed C-130F Hercules

Designed to function as a troop, medical evacuation and cargo transport aircraft, the C-130 Hercules was first flown on August 23rd, 1954. Built by Lockheed and capable of over 40,000 lbs of payload, this four-engine turboprop aircraft is quite possibly the most versatile tactical transport in existence. Its modern roles include airlift and airdrop, electronic surveillance, search and rescue, space-capsule recovery, helicopter refueling and aerial attack. Capable of takeoffs and landings from unprepared runways, the C-130 has even landed and taken off from a carrier deck without benefit of arresting gear or catapults.
