@crappy4478 I was a crew chief there as well from 1969 to 1975. Took care of them at Lajes in the Azores and then at Travis where I retired

My dad was stationed at Altus most of his Air Force career. He was a C-141 crew chief. Everyday i would look up everytime a 141 took off or was coming back from a training flight. It was very rare not to see one in the air. The Euro 1 paint job took some getting used to, and there were still some white-over-grey 141s floating around. I hadn't another until 2007 when we went to Scott and saw the 166. And we went to W-P and saw the Hanoi Taxi this year. I miss them old birds.

I remember when my father first bought his 66 Ford Mustang w/the California package (h.o. engine, interior upgrades, equi-lock rear end (ford's posi) and so on. One morning, my dad, with the 349th Air Mobility Command @Travis AFB had just transitioned from C-133's and C-124 Globemaster II's to the Lockheed C-141. Up we raced in our Mustang and there, on the tarmac, sat the 'California Bear' I probably shouldn't say what happened next but I'll never forget. Dad's Retired as Col. What days!

Having grown up (literally on what is now LAX's northern runway, I moved to Berdoo in '64, and played in a band at Norton's "Teen Club" at age 13, in '69. Though I absolutely loved avation (spending hours in my front yard tree watching "connies" in Westchester, north of LAX), I never loved it more until my uncle was based at Norton, flying those works of art from Norton. 40+ years later, I love that noisy bird even more! Thanks so much for posting!
What a gorgeous design!

Although I'm a C-17 guy, I have fond memories driving with my father in his old Mustang in San Bernardino, CA and seeing rows and rows of Starlifters at Norton AFB... good times.
Now both Norton and the 141s are gone.

Wow- Just found out they retired the C-141. My favorite airplane that I took off in, but didn't land with it. RIP Starlifter. A- BORNE all the way!!!!!
