Chandigarh: A C-130J Super Hercules transport aircraft of the Air Force has been reportedly damaged after it hit some structures while taxiing at the Thoise airfield in Ladakh recently. It is learnt that the aircraft, flown by the unit’s commanding officer, was on a night flying mission to Thoise, located at an altitude of about 10,000 near the Siachen Glacier. It veered off the taxi track, damaging a wing and an engine. The IAF has convened a court of inquiry to investigate the incident. This is the second incident to hit the C-130 fleet, bringing down the strength from the original six to four. In 2014, the IAF lost a C-130   after it crashed near Gwalior during a low-level training exercise, killing all five crew members onboard. TNS
