Spent a couple of dozen hours on the "big birds" during my time as a base brat. Two trips across "the pond" and back; and three between Namao and various Canadian destinations. Bit of time in the back of CC-130's (posted in Goose); even a trip on "Dolly's Folly" when I lived in Cold Lake...
Flew into Baden on 13702 in the Spring of 1971 (they were redoing the runway at Lahr at the time)...it still had that "new car" smell. I was 7 y/o, but I remember it like it was yesterday...
