flew ATR-42-300's in there back in the early 90's and unless my memory is totally wacked we always had pretty heavy loads in and out of there... that as RDU-HHH-RDU
As for C-130's doing bounces there... would have to see it to believe it..
Have about 1500ish hours in hercs and know I never did bounce's at a place that short.. fwiw.. we use to routinely do assault landings on 3000x60 foot paved and UNPAVED strips... lightweight... down around 95-100k pounds could feasibly be done in less than 2200 landing. Its more fun than you should be allowed to have in a plane
