Absolutely !!

Ortho4XP, ZL16 This time, the distance I fly is longer and I don’t use the Transall, but the Virtavia Boeing B-47E Stratojet instead. The B-47 was the first swept-wing multi-engine bomber in service with the USAF and truly a quantum leap in aviation history. Today it is considered the forerunner of every jet aircraft in service. Its swept-wing design was actually the result of a visit of a Boeing aero-engineer to Germany, where he was shown some secret wind-tunnel data on swept-wing jet airplanes. Already as early as 1943, Boeing engineers had envisaged a jet bomber, but were unable to overcome issues with the straight wings of the day. After having passed the majestic Glacier Bay mountains, I turn east, pass by Gustavus and head towards our destination Juneau Thanks for viewing

That junior Herc (love that name) is a Transall C 160. I flew with it many times, it has been used by many European countries and some still use it today. During the last few years, it was gradually replaced by the larger and more modern Airbus A 400

Many thanks, gents, for your comments. And thank you Mark for answering Ed's question, while I was asleep 😃😃
