| book description |

THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLER Read the legendary story of the Lockheed C-130 Hercules aircraft, seen through the eyes of former RAF captain Scott Bateman 'An engaging and revealing read' JOHN NICHOL ‘An action-packed insider’s account of what it’s like to fly this legendary flying machine in peace and war’ KeyAero.com -- Take wing with an unsung hero . . . Hercules is the hero of the skies we never talk about. First to land in any combat zone and last out, the Hercules always unflashily gets the job done – whether that’s a risky air drop or hauling out troops in an emergency evac. Also working as an aerial tanker, gunship, spyplane, air-sea rescuer and even a precision bomber, its versatility has time and again seen the Hercules give the RAF their edge – from Antarctica to Iraq, Afghanistan to the Falklands. Captain Scott Bateman drags us into the cockpit and buckles us in for an extraordinary pilot’s seat view of this aircraft’s 50-year history. Anytime. Anywhere. Anyhow.
