Very cool. I especially liked the pic where they are parting out the wrecked one. Very Cool

"Over the Hump"!

I always thought that the floppy officer hat with the elastic ring removed was just a jaunty display... these pics tell me that it was so the headphones would fit!

Makes sense!

cool

I've noticed that the transports don't have nose undercarriage doors, except the one in post #16, although it looks like a bomber conversion.
