Seychelles International Airport. Taken with my camera by my late father Barry Taylor when on a tour of the Middle East and Indian Ocean by RAF C-130K Hercules C1 XV219. My father was a passenger on this trip. Built in the USA and assigned serial 66-8569 which was never carried. Delivered new to the RAF as XV219 on 09 Dec 1967. Later converted to a C3. Transferred to Lockheed on 26 Nov 2000 and scrapped. This photo is copyright © Barry Taylor, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
