Bought directly from Lockheed along as commercial L100-30 aircraft (former N4080M) as a replacement Hercules for written-off RCAF C-130s. It was delivered to the RCAF on 16 May 1997, modified to CC-130H-30 military standard by Spar Aerospace at Edmonton and assigned to No. 8 Wing at CFB Trenton in May 1997. 344 is seen here taking off from Kandahar with a fine combat vehicle back-ground.
