World Wide Review 

The C-130 Technical Coordination Group (TCG) World Wide Review (WWR) is a event that is held annually to assemble the C-130 Hercules community with the aim of sharing new technologies, experiences, improvements, brotherhood and ideas with the ultimate goal of continuing to operate and maintain the Lockheed Martin C-130 Hercules aircraft safely and efficiently.  This event is held to support Foreign Military Sales (FMS) C-130 operators.  Each year FMS C-130 operators are sent invitations to attend this event.

The WWR offers commercial vendors an opportunity to display their most current capabilities and improvements in one location to an audience of foreign partner nation’s operators and maintainers.  The event also shares current projects and concerns which are ongoing around the globe for C-130 fleets.  Live presentations are delivered by C-130 engineers, who also offer question and answer sessions.

A gathering of over 150 commercial vendors in attendance and over 30 partner nations represented to exchange issues, concerns and ideas for improvements to the C-130.  Formal briefings are a mainstay to the event as well as hours afforded for leisurely roaming through the vendor exhibits on display in the event hall ballrooms.  For a more intimate exchange of ideas; side bar meetings are encouraged and venues for conducting these meetings are always available at the location.

The C-130 TCG has now been operating for 38 years.  Since the inception of the C-130 TCG in 1987 we have held 34 World Wide Reviews.  Only 3 World Wide Reviews were not held (1987, 2013, and 2020).

The 2025 C-130 TCG 35th World Wide Review is scheduled to take place in Orlando, Flordia, USA at the Caribe Royale on 27 - 31 October 2025.  Registration to our event is now OPEN.  Click the button below to register.
