I like how all this equipment is going to be based out of the east. First the Chinooks, now the Hercs.

The infastructure and technicians not to mention the Herc Sqns are all in Trenton bud. Cold Lake is a fighter Base

Last time I checked 17 wing had Herc's too, and it would be nice to have some Chinooks in the west. I know that I sound like a kid bitching that my cousin got what I wanted for Christmas but hey.... call it as I see it. On a personal note I hate being called bud, something about it just erks me.

Agreed

How is this aircraft differnet from the older Hercules air craft that I see all the time?

They are 40 years apart in design. The J models have a 'glass' cockpit, no navigator or air-engineer required.
They have uprated engines, hi-tech props, computerised ash-trays etc.
