FSX RNoAF Lockheed C-130J

FSX RNoAF Lockheed C-130J "Frigg". The Norwegian Air Force operated until the spring of 2008 a fleet of six Hercules aircraft - Odin, Thor, Balder, Frey, Tyr and Brage. These were of the variant C-130E / H and was submitted in 1969 to 135 airlift wing/335-squadron. The aircraft were stationed at Gardermoen AFB. These became too old for almost 40 years of service and was taken out of operation on 15 May 2008. They had gathered over 133,665 hours in the air and had flown a distance equal to around the Earth 1713 times. Five of the six planes are stored at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in anticipation of a potential buyer. The sixth aircraft is at the Air Force Museum at Gardermoen. By Marius S. Grovdal.
