Italian Air Force C130 crash on departure . . .

Correct; any older (H, K, etc) model hercs are 5 person crew. However, the new J models are 3-4 depending on whether there is an FCC. Which brings me to my question; 1-2 pax? Or maybe taking a new loadie/pilot/etc out for training?
I know what defines crew on a herky…I’m in the (hopefully) final stages of enlisting as a loadmaster(smasher). :smiley:
