> A C-130 Hercules will be taking 10 NDRF (National Disaster Response force) from India to Nepal. Each NDRF team consists of 45 personnel including engineers, technicians, electricians, dog squads and medical/paramedics. They have a proven track record of working in disaster areas.
Part of me is getting worried. If I'm reading this correctly, they're shipping 450 people via single C-130. What happens if the plane breaks? India will be out of NDRFs?
On the other hand - there may be capacity to receive one plane, but not 10 - you don't know how long the infrastructure will be working.
My mind is with the people of Nepal, hoping for the best.
