Not often you see a military Herc next to the terminal at a civilian airport, let alone three.

 

UPDATE NOV 2023

The Herc was been scrapped in around 2014. The Navajo is still current though in new colors, has been owned since May 2006 and is Nanaimo based and seems to be a shuttle between the two airports as it is regularly still parked in this very spot.
