There is the AN-72 Jet boogie in Cochstedt Germany 3-8july. It has a ramp as big as a C-130 and gets to altitude a lot quicker. More information can be found here

Both Tony DeBruin's Skyvans are based in Belgium although they make their way around Europe a fare bit during the summer. At least one of them will be at both Langar's boogies this summer.

I think they are based at DZ Zwartberg or a military base near there. Tony advertises in Skydive the mag but I can't find an up to date edition with his contact details in it.

At least one of them is at Schaffen.But i think it is only used for military jumps.No civilians.So the whole weekend there is one sometimes two skyvans sitting there without moving.

If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes???

There may have been a C-130 at Quincy in the past, but don't expect to see one anywhere in the US available for skydiving. True, the military has a shitload of them, but also a "no-civilian-use" rule, so you can only jump them in other countries, like at the Hercules boogie or in Thailand...

The closest to the C-130 is the C-123 that has been at Eloy in the past. The C-123 has been used in the movies a bunch of times, including "Operation Dumbo Drop". However, I don't know where it is now or when the last time it was used for skydiving.

Yes, for military training jumps, pretty much.
