Photo taken from crew entry door of C-130 on port side of aircraft. There was fold down steps into the plane, and then a short ladder up into the cockpit. Cargo area is to the right in this photo. Note rack of aircraft tech publications on right, and a sextant port for celestial navigation in roof above copilot's head. On the copilot's left part of the bench seat that was at the rear of the cockpit can be seen.
The periscopic sextant was one of my maintenance responsibilities, but the only thing I ever had to do was change the light bulbs.
