Dear Community,
As there was no Simbrief profile for the Lockheed C-130K Hercules yet, I decided to make one myself, matching the real world values. The profile is based on the Dash 8 Q400, as it has almost the same cruising speed, as the Lockheed C-130K Hercules, but I of course adapted it, to match the real plane.
I increased the Fuel Factor up to P80 (80 % more than the Dash 8 Q400).
Changelog:
- I changed the name from Dash 8 Q400 to Lockheed C-130K
- I adapted the weights to match real world performance values and adjusted the fuel burn
- I added the engine type T56-A-15
- I changed the cruising altitude to FL350, which is the maximum ceiling of the Lockheed C-130K
- I changed the Minimum Runway length to 3000 ft

Note: This version is based on the Lockheed C-130K Hercules (Hercules C Mk.1P) by the Austrian Air Force. Other variants may have different performance values.
@SimBrief May you please add it to the Simbrief database?
