Notes:

725 departs Rwy 02C after a visit to the military ramp at Changi. Some interesting tidbits about this Herky - she had served with the USAF as 60-0308 before transfer to the Royal Jordanian AF. In 1978, she was one of 2 RJAF herks sold to the RSAF. To extend the legs of the RSAF's A-4s and F-5s, the fleet of 4 C-130Bs were modified with air-to-air refuelling equipment in the early 80s to form the air force's first mid-air refuelling capability.
