C-145 makes a successful single engine landing at Talahassee. The news media of course is making a really big deal out of landing on just one engine in low cloud cover... Anyway, it ended well...

Am I the only guy on here who had to google was a C-145 is?

Only reason I know about the C-145/M-28 was because I was airborne when one crashed in Afghanistan a few years ago. The damn thing flipped tail over nose, onto its back. These guys we're picked up by an HH-60...that subsequently crashed on takeoff! Talked about a bad night.

I was on that SIB. Damn lucky no one died...one of the M-28 dudes was thrown and pinned underneath the helo as it rolled. Luckily there was a foot of dust he sank into and the PJs were able to just pull him out. They did a CDI in lieu of an AIB for the HH-60 one, so I have no idea how to find a copy of that to post here, sorry.
