US Forces in Iraq - blow up disabled C130 - photo . . .

Aircraft took-off from Sather Air Base, next to Bagdad Airport, and made an emegency landing in a field on June 27/08. No injuries were reported.

I guess the NOLA cops won’t be showing up with their shopping carts.

now watch the video of $30.1 (minus engines) being blown to pieces.

Are they blowing it up to move smaller pieces, or are they afraid of what a terrorist could do with it?

The linked article above says they were “dismantling” it into seven pieces, which were then loaded onto flatbeds to be moved. I guess it beats a Sawzall !
