Question Navy, or Air Force?

In those days—it was, indeed—inspiring.

At my winter residence, we're not very far from a U.S. Navy base.

Complaints—mostly, residents from the northern tier of the United States—are aired on local radio, printed-, and electronic- media frequently.

My question, however, is this: How was this determined to be a Navy aircraft? They look so much alike. That must have been a very low "pass".

'Course, only a U.S. Navy C-130 has landed on an aircraft carrier!



ETA:



Those are White Pines and Eastern Hemlocks in the photo, which grow to somewhat over 100-feet. The Hercules in the background is a huge aircraft. I think he's well-above 500-feet.
