Strange decision with those left(engines 2 and 4) and right (engines 1 and 3) propellers. Perhaps they have huge gyroscopic momentums.

Amalahama,

 

thanks for the pics!! It's time that the old C-160 Transall is laid to rest, she is now at least 50 years in service! I guess older than the C-135/KC/RC series.

 

Very promising design, the engines need less fuel (geared turbofan?) as a regular jet engine.
