I live about an hour south of Sevilla (Where they are trying to cobble the A400M together)near a Spanish base that host a US base (Rota). I see a lot of C-5 and C-17s. About two weeks before xmas my wife and I were driving to village just south of Sevilla and there is this military plane flying fairly low, and about 20 miles from Rota so not on a visual approach. My wife of course asks me what kinda of plane is it. I'm not too good at that but better than her I guess. It looked like a c17 to me then I saw it had props. So I said C-130 but looks a little funky... OK now which of these goats roads do we take up here. I will be looking for it now, camera ready.
 
Well nobody seems to care, but it did make it's 3rd flight4 days ago. It has been IMC pretty much every day but Sat the 8th, but I will try to take out my camera when I am out.
