THis USN C-20G BUNO 165094  landed after the above C-130. I had to leave quickly as a Naval Officer was also parked there and sped away quickly to appearently call security to report my photography. I saw him again about one minute later walking out of the guard shack at NAS NI's beach gate.  It may be a  while b-4 I post any more NI pics.

This aircraft has no markings except the 094 on the tail.

You know i was once at the officers club there on base for mother's day brunch, and that parking lot right there is perfect for taking shots, so i went there and snapped a few up.  A few days later i read all the brew-ha about the people taking photos outside the base, and here I was at the fenceline!  Luckily i didn't have any issues, but i could see how it could turn south quick!

Had I gone to the officers club parking lot No one would have said any thing. I was driving west on Quintin Roosevelt road and I saw the C-130 about to land so I pulled into a lot on the other side of the runway and shot from inside the cab of my truck except for the shot of the C-20 taxiing which I got out and shot. Thats when the officer sped off and I felt I better get out of there too.
