During the latter stages of the Cold War, the Royal Air Force and Royal Navy operated a range of air transport and VIP/communications aircraft. These were essential in providing back-up and support to other units. Some of the most common types included the famous Lockheed C-130 Hercules; the American long-range, wide-body Lockheed TriStar; and the limited-production heavy lift turboprop Short Belfast.
With more than 180 black and white and colour photographs, this book gives these aircraft the recognition that they deserve for the often unsung, yet essential, service that they gave.
