Thank YOu, Youre always a hard man and I respect that.....

Also, in closing, I felt that I needed to apologize to the women because after all they are military too and we don't know the real truth if in fact there was space Available. Plus who knows maybe one of them is pretty and not the fat and ugly as depicted by a fellow poster.... and they were getting a bad rep. I have come to believe that you can't read first reports cause when it comes out it seemed over blown. Hmmmmmmmm.....But if they are pretty indeed and there reading my posts PM Me :banana:

If they booked the whole plane just for that trip would the whole thing a massive travesty to the uniformed men and women of the AFP.

Since they were only hitching a ride with troops to be sent to and from the front, I have to hand it to them especially when hitching a ride aboard a Herc.
The way military transport planes are flown (especially C130 Hercs) is different from flying a Cebu Pacific A320 or Asian Spirit C295 (even if those flying the latter used to or at least were trained to fly C130s when they were still in the PAF). PAF Herc drivers are trained to take off and land in the shortest roughest pieces of airstrip under heavy enemy fire. Hence the break-neck take-off and the slam-bang landings

The experience of flying aboard a C130 could no way in hell as close to even the economy class. Up there, there's hardly any climate control (in other words it's cold), you only have basket webs for seats and seatbelts and the toilets were designed in the Cold War (it's just a stool-sized portalet).
