VTOL controls flaps. Trim DOWN lowers ramp. The C-8BC Brahmin is a variant of the C-8B Brahmin in service with an interal cabin. This was due to operational tests by the Paternian Air Force, and concerns commanders had with employing paratroopers or carrying personnel in a 20-foot or 40-foot container suspended under the airframe. The conversion could be done to any C-8B Brahmin in service, and was envisioned as a "bolt-on" upgrade that can be done at a field maintenance facility. The airframe itself is unchanged, and handling is largely identical. This conversion will supplement the standard C-8B Brahmin in service, as the PAF found many advantages using underslung containers for the transport and logisitcs of anything but personnel.
