An unusual sight over Burlington today... pretty sure there were two of these planes, with different paint jobs, though I didn't see them at the same time.
Awesome pic (really! Plane nuts would be seriously envious). It's a C-130H3 Hercules, the largest and heaviest cargo/transport plane that can land and take off successfully on/from an aircraft carrier (runway as short as 150m).
