Joseph... that is quite understandable. This Herky Bird cannot be found in the FAA registry. The number that's showing as 15748 is a USAF tail number.

You can locate this C-130J here on Joe Baugher's site...

According to Mr. Baugher's published information, this Lockheed C-130J Super Hercules was manufactured as USAF s/n 11-5748, Lockheed c/n 382-5748. It was assigned to the 61st Airlift Squadron/19th Airlift Wing at Little Rock AFB, Arkansas.

If you edit the number adding a zero or two to the front, it will discard the "N" and at least not say it's a DC-3. I only found this because I uploaded a photo of that DC-3 tail number today and it said there were two photos of it...this one and mine. But this is clearly not the same a/c. :)
