Wow. I didn't know the Army has Shorts!

Funny - there were 2 on the ramp at Dulles this afternoon, too. First 2 Shorts 330s I've seen.

Noticed one on approach to LGA a couple of years ago. But haven't another one beyond that apart from a static display at Lakehurst back in 2001.

I believe there are a few based in NJ, but I forget where.

Ugly as sin. Looks like a mole with wings.

I was always fond of the Flying Boxcars

I always thought the 360 was a much better looking machine... :borat:
