Cadets airlifted in true military style
For 60 young Hawke's Bay and Gisborne military cadets getting to the 150th anniversary national camp being staged at Waiouru demanded a very special means of transport out of Napier. It was a very large bus - with wings. The air force put on a C130 Hercules to airlift the cadets, in true military style, to the Ohakea Air Base where they were taken by bus to Waiouru. The big four-engined transport aircraft touched down, for a brief and rare visit, just after 10.30am and took off about two hours later - its excited young cargo all safely aboard. 23 January, 2014.
