Built in 2018 and "privately" owned.
Actually it would be an L100. It's stretched as well. Southern Air flew them. We could fit 8 463L pallets on them.
Douglas C-133 Cargomaster ?
Looks stretched
That is the first LM-100J type out there. Just recently certified (2020) and in use by a private freight hauler.
It's similar to the C-130J-30. The -30 is a 15 foot fuselage stretch.
I worked on C130 L100's with the Royal Saudi Arabian Air Force. What is the difference?
They were mainly flying hospitals with Doctors and Nurses and an ambulance 4 x 4 on the tailgate to look after people out in desert communities.
Many thanks. Mel. J.

We used to go to the Azores back in the early 80’s with the US Air Force from Pope AFB. Fuel stop on the way to Mildenhall England.
