Maj. Jesse Klaetsch, 36th Airlift Squadron pilot, pushes down on the throttle while flying the first Yokota C-130J Super Hercules training sortie over the skies of Japan March 20, 2017. Compared to older C-130s, the J model climbs faster and higher, flies farther at a higher cruise speed, and takes off and lands in a shorter distance. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
