We need to get to the cause of it immediately for any possible corrective action if the cause is due to maintenance. I suspect human error and/or weather. C-130s do not crash just like that for no reason.

C 130's have malfunctioned and failed in the past so it may not just be human error or bad weather.

RIP guys. Good to see that the villagers rushed out of their houses and pulled several people alive from the crash.

Time to change C130s,it is already a many years old model, to a safer high tech new model, military transport plane.

C130 from lockheed martin, first flight was in 1950s and about 2262 units made till 2006.
