    Default Probably out of my depth, but...

    I'll confess that I used to think that as well, but the limitation of weight (and size) was never expressed in a useful way. It was all about HOW and not about WHY."

    It is my recollection that the C130 criteria was based on the why that is usually expressed as 'operational maneuver from strategic distance
    Of course the C130 criteria became the proverbial self-licking ice cream cone... in essence it replaced the why because it was far easier for the unwashed to grasp...

    then again, I wasn't involved in any tangible sense whilst this was debated... I do think that it was a Huba idea recycled from the writing of Svechin... again my memory may be faulty though

    Go Orangemen!!!
