IAF C-130J Super Hercules Arrives at Nepal to Remove Crash Landed Turkish Airlines Airbus A330

[razgriz19]

so basically they're gonna jack up this thing, change the tires, inspect the landing gear and tow it to some taxiway on the side. Turkish Airline will probably send in some mechanics to fix the landing gear and may perform some NDT to confirm whether this thing can take another landing.

It looks like the front landing gear has collapsed..
Not sure it's as simple as jacking up and changing tires.

Nepal's only international airport reopens after runway cleared | Zee News

Good news. Turks making 50,000 friends in Nepal : (

The four-day shutdown at the Tribhuvan International Airport leaving as many as 50,000 travellers in Nepal and outside stranded...

Its very unbecoming of an Indian to question and expect something in return for a help extended. Its an emergency for Nepal's only international airport and for the Turkish aircraft stranded far from their country.

One would think it was more in the interests of Indians to have Nepals International Airport reopen.

So when do we get the news of Turkey becoming Islamic Caliphate of Turkey?

An independent military industry is required first which Erdogan is building.

What are you,a kid?
Whats with the Sunni bs?
Turks dont care about sects.

Why dont you and your friends go play in the Tel Aviv section of the forum: Turkish Defence Forum where you can discuss your secret loves "Maccabi Haifa" vs "Maccabi Tel Aviv".

Turks are currently involved in delicate hostage negotiations with the Indians. Turks have to choose either the airplane or Pakistan & Bangladesh. Also a discussion on Indias 1300+ Turkish history since the Abbasid Turks.

Im interested in knowing how C130 can move a A330? How is it really done? anyone?

C130's have rocket boosters underneath the wing-body joins. Using a heavier crane if used connected to the aircraft, it can easily thrust-force the stuck airbus out and push it back on the tarmac.

I think it is only used by US and maybe Israel, Indian version doesn't have those.

I don't think that's accurate, may want to double check. It may be that your version is newer with advanced, higher powered engines, so that takes out the need for the boosters. The Pakistani version has it I think I saw it once in Texas with boosters.

Interesting, I thought they were only used as tech demo, Indian version might have more powerful engines since they are newer. But I have not seen the rocket boosters in use by the IAF.

Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Khorasan, sunni Indians are Turks ethnic & sunni kin. What you are asking will never ever happen. Indians do you know Sultan Babur Khan and the "Mughals" are ethnic Turks. Not Mongols. Not Persians. Not Indians. Right?

The Mughals would beg to differ. They prided on their descendance from Chengiz Khan. Turkish roots, not so much. They took help from Persians when they were on the run, based on ancestral ties. Mughals are not ethnic Turks. They are ethnic Mongols who might have gotten Turkified.

Babur | biography - Mughal emperor | Encyclopedia Britannica
babur,( Arabic: “Tiger”) also spelled Bābar or Bāber, original name Ẓahīr al-Dīn Muḥammad (born Feb. 15, 1483, principality of Fergana [now in Uzbekistan]—diedDec. 26, 1530, Agra [India]), emperor (1526–30) and founder of the Mughal dynastyof India. A descendant of the Mongol conqueror Chinggis (Genghis) Khan and also of the Turkic conqueror Timur (Tamerlane), Bābur was a military adventurer, a soldier of distinction, and a poet and diarist of genius, as well as a statesman

Timur is also a Mongol, but his tribe became Turkic, probably left there after Chengiz Khan's invasion.

We call Mongols barbaric today. But Babar and Timur took pride in being a descendant of Mongols. They spoke Turkic language because they settled in Central Asia. And that is how they have such names. But the word Mughal itself is a Persian word and a derivative of Mongol. All the culture including cuisine like biryani that Mughals brought into India is also more Persian than Turk. Babar was a panauti his whole life, he lost land even after winning battles. His son Humayun had to run away and take shelter in Persia, where he found shelter just because of his ancestry.

There was a time when I used to read and read obsessively. And there was a time during this time when I was researching the Mughal roots when my general knowledge about Mughals was questioned by someone in PDF. Chengiz Khan's and Babur's stories are very interesting so you won't stop reading.
