Notes:

One of only 27 C-130s ever constructed with the "Roman nose" sits in a private yard adjacent to Davis-Monthan AFB. 54-1632 was the 21st Hercules constructed and I believe is the last blunt-nosed C-130 in existence. Hopefully it is preserved and not scrapped! The two US Navy C-118s flanking the C-130 have since been turned into beer cans sadly.
