Title: FMC?
Post by dbrum on Jan 23^rd, 2009 at 1:59pm

I am interested in your C-130, don't use it yet.

Do the various models come with an FMC? Where can I read details on the panels provided, etc?

thanks

about the FMC, I don't exactly know,
since I like to fly VFR and manually...

No. C-130 does not use FMC.

True, C130 doesn't have FMC, but you can try with this:

It is very useful for me.

The C-130J has a CNI-MU (Com/Nav/Identification Management Unit) which is a commercial off the shelf FMS modified to adapt military functions into the C-130J.

Along with the above true statement, most legacy C-130's (B-H) have some sort of FMC installed. SCNS (self contained navigation system) was a big advancement at the time for the C-130 avionics.
