@xXxHuRr1cAn3xXx yeah, 1st time we saw one at an airshow, we were stunned at it's size.

1 PROBLEM ,THAT THING IS A SITTING DUCK. HOW DO PILOTS AVOID ROCKET LAUNCHERS, I MEAN U COULDNT MISS. IM GUESSING THAT THIS THING IS A RISKY PLANE TO LAND BEHIND ENEMY LINES. PILOTS GOT TO HAVE BALLS

@twoheadz73

I am no military aviation expert, but typically these planes have massive amounts of countermeasures.

im a pilot for the USAF and i fly these all the time, the ride is so smooth. i fly AC-130's in iraq as well as the C-5 Galaxy, the cargo hold is crazy and theres a passenger hold behing the cockpit. beautiful aircraft...

@xXxHuRr1cAn3xXx So, is it true that every time the C-5 lands, something breaks on it? lol

My uncle worked on aircraft in the USAF for 11 years, and said he's never seen one land and not have something break on it, just because of how complicated they are.

These planes fly over my house all the time when landing in Dover. They usually turn right over our house to get into a landing approach. Love em'
