On This Day 8th February 1993.

467, Lockheed C-130H Hercules, Royal Saudi Air Force, parked on the cargo ramp at Manchester Airport, 8th February 1993, on one of my rare visits over to that side of the airport, which was pretty much inaccessible without a car.
Saudi Herc's were a regular sight back then, it wasn't unknown to have 3 or 4 on the ground at once, picking up supplies from one of the British Aerospace factories in the area.
