Airmen from the 139th Airlift Wing, Missouri Air National Guard, conducted a rapid deployment exercise in which a C-130H Hercules aircraft flew for an accumulative 41.5 hours at Rosecrans Air National Guard Base, St. Joseph, Missouri, Feb. 13-15, 2024. Multiple aircrews conducted a 41-hour sortie in which the aircraft engines ran continuously for 45 hours and the aircraft was refueled three times adding up to a total of 152,750 pounds of jet fuel with 11,390 miles flown. This type of training enhances the wing’s war-fighting capability by pushing the limits of the aircraft and personnel. (U.S. Air National Guard video by Staff Sgt. Janae Masoner)
