As the RAF, RAAF USAF and many others have found out the only thing to replace a Herc - is another Herc (okay upgrade / rebuild in RNZAF's case) wink.gif
Takeoff's are optional. Landings are mandatory.

Typically nice to see again , it dose make Hamilton a very busy place for training spose ideal to have less distance and lessor fuel burn but i am guessing always done so .
