Landed around 3am in a thick rain storm passing overhead (Santo Domingo, DR).
In the low light and lamplights, thought it was a C130, but the lines didn’t look right.

AN-128, the C130ski (not to be confused with a C130 with ski’s because that’s a real thing too)

If it’s ugly it’s British, if it’s weird it’s French, if it’s ugly and weird it’s Russian

Was in Panama last night found a Fokker 50 not quiet as cool but got me reminiscing of the Fokker 27 that used to make our ears ring while ramping back in the day
