"The first two Iraqi AF C-130Js are on their delivery flight

Details are as follows
YI-306 RCH745
YI-305 RCH435
YI-304 RCH325 (one day behind on departure)
Both are currently at Quonset State Airport (RI)"

Look like three to me........ :roll:, and looks they gathered, before starting crossing the Atlantic as from 2230-2300 GMT

Not as exotic as Iraqi C130s, but visiting on December 18th is NAF68.
