130th Airlift Wing loading Senior Scout onto its C-130H Hercules
Senior Airman Kendall Hypes, a Loadmaster with the 130th Airlift Wing out of Charleston, W.Va., checks the clearance as Senior Scout, a pallet-mounted communications and electronic intelligence system, is loaded onto a West Virginia Air National Guard C-130H3 Hercules aircraft, Aug. 17, 2009. The unit deployed to Salt Lake City, Utah for one month to participate in testing. The huge 4,500 cubic foot cargo area of the aircraft duplicates the volume of the standard American railroad box car. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Debbie Turrill/Released)
