It was a great plane to fly in.I got to see Mt Fuji out of the window flying from Taiwan to Japan.A lot of noise in it but I'd do it again.

@yacope Same here.....I was in the 41st MAS from July 85 till I went to McChord in 97. Flight engineer the whole time.

Unbelievable aircraft to an old fighter jockey. Class of 45-A United States Army Air Force. Lt.Col. Robert V. Beaudreau USAF retired Res.

I had been looking at C-141 all the time from small time in Yokota AB.
It is a very favorite air force plane.
I am sad if you think that it does not come to yokota any longer.
Thank you.

I dropped by the museum a couple weeks ago and 177 is sitting outside, filthy dirty looking rather neglected. Sad, but true.

My first flight ever was on a C-141 from Travis AFB to Aussie. Took us a week to get there. Got to see the Pacific. Great memories. Something I will always be proud of as a brat. Bringing a tear to my eye as we speak. :)

@acearms The problem with the 141 was that it couldn't haul tanks. The C-17 can.

I've always wondered why the C-141 couldn't once again be produced with new engines and electrons. A fantastic and beautful airplane, it would be a bird that couldn't be beat.
Retirements SUCKS! Let them FLY FOREVER. Classics never died. Thanks Skunk!

Those airplanes are CLASSIC transport workhorses. It's not going to be the same without them.
