I've been thinking about a small dio using the C130 in an OIF setting along with the new 1/72 scale HMMV's. Would the C130 carry HMMV's? Would it work to have a C130 on the airfield with a HMMV's driving out of it? I assume ofcourse it was used in OIF?

Is the Italeri C130 in 1/72 scale the only kit? And is it a good kit?

Thanks for any info and ideas you can give me.

Oh yeah, they'll carry Humvees. There is more than one

I have an old MPC 1/72 I am reassembling, I think it is the same as the Airfix (different Boxart ofcourse), the real *@ is the tail gate and floor assembly. Big Kit.
