My son and I always enjoyed watching the US C-5 Galaxy fly over our home each month. It was always one of those "drop everything" moments when we would run to our back yard and listen to the huge engines whine and see it descending to its destination. We did not know which base it came from or which one it was heading to. The overflights were discontinued a few years ago. 😥
👍
I was stationed at Travis AFB in 1980. Loaded a many C-5’s, C-141’s, C-130’s, 747’S, DC8’S, etc. The C-5 has the smoothest ride when going tdy. Retired years back. Still love that C-5 engine sound.
Pleasure to meat another 605. I assume you were with the 60th APS? I wore the Deeds Not Words patch myself from 1983-1992. Ramp Services, ATOC, Load Planning, then PAX when they combined Air Cargo and Air Pax into Air Transportation... Boy I miss those days sometimes
I was in USAF for 8 years and was stationed at Travis AFB for the last 4 of them; in the subsequent 35.5 years I lived in Fairfield, CA. Over those nearly 40 years, I grew quite used to--but never tired of--these behemoths flying overhead. I've moved since to the Pacific Northwest, so I only occasionally see its smaller cousin, the C-17, these days. My son wanted to be a loadmaster on a C-5, but he would've had to wait quite a while for a position to open. Instead, he is now an avionics technician for F-15Es in North Carolina.
I was at 60 OMS myself in the mid 80s!
I remember during the preparation for the first Iraq war. I would see the these C-5s taking off from Travis and they were obviously loaded with a lot of weight. As the take off was rather low and much longer than I was used to seeing. I was out fishing at various times out in the Delta and I would see them taking off. The engine noise was also louder.
Im also us Air force...do you remember me...😁
@@jasontengan4554 what a old chap...🥴
I grew up on Travis. My dad worked on the KC10s, but the C5s stood out the most by far. It's a shame they replaced the TF39s. The C5s were unparalleled when those were roaring in the sky. I understand completely why they were replaced though. Nowadays they just sound like a 747
I live near to the fantasticC130s. Proud to have them in our Air Force fleet and the crew who are special part to keep them in top shape.
I love the view into the cockpit at 5:15 !
I was a flight line mechanic in the U.S. AIR FORCE. My memory of a C-5, I changed many to tires and refueled it.
Mơ
My brother was a flight line mechanic out of Travis too. Crazy to see the size of that plane up close
Me too bro...😁 do you remember me...🤔
The best thing about Fat Albert is it sounds like 4 Warthogs taking off at the same time.,. 😂
These are still a slick looking plane considering it the design is nearly 60 years old.
Mid 1960s design.
Always loved that sound.
Wow awesome training guys 👍
The C-5A's "noisy"? That's the best sounding big jet EVER!
USA., ¡¡¡ Bravo !!! La experiencia y el amor a la patria y la familia ,es lo que hace tan atractivo este país de gringos ,que hasta los más ideologizados comunistas sueñan con comprar una residencia, con plata de la mafia. ¡¡¡ Viva USA !!!
Très jolie vidéo. merci de nous l'avoir montrée. Amicalement.
Incredible video!! Absolutely loved it!! Great quality and information!!! New fan and subscriber!!
This C5 was winning Lockheed design
yay,, 👏 😊
Mama & Becky ( Lockheed Martin Marietta) years...
I live about 5 miles from Travis AFB, I sure do miss the sound of those TF-39's.
imagine flying a 150million dollar plane and say "imma actually land like this just so i can practice" lol i hate war and the reason for these planes existence but the tech is so amazing
That’s 1 massive plane
My first love aircraft 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I took flight training at Fort Rucker Alabama in 1973 love those helicopter flight door gunner
Had the absolute privilege in traveling this sweet babe
Also on my flight from the east coast to Ft Lewis was I.n a converted KC130 and the pilots let me hang out in the cockpit!!
Este coloso veterano del aire y de mil batallas sigue siendo el Rey de los cielos ,el Big Pappy ,el Patron ,el jefe ,el Amo y señor ,el Titan ,el mero chingon como decimos en México.,colecciono aviones y aun no tengo uno de estos ,sin duda debe ser toda una experiencia ver a estos militares prepararlo para cada mision y mas al oir bufar de manera poderosa los motores que son apabullantes a la hora de oirlos ,otra gran pieza de ingenieria aerea !!!!!! ✈😎✈😎✈😎✌😎✌😎👍👍✈😎✈👍✈😎👌✈👌✈👍😎
I already have type of these aircraft ...if you want ....sure its o.k 😁
3:56,,, MAJESTUOSO ✈️🇺🇲💪👍
Numa palavra: formidável!
16:01 Fragata FF-07 "Almirante Lynch" de Chile 👏👏👏
Incirlik to Germany on one. Loved it
I got to fly on one of these and c17s to and from Afghanistan and Iraq and what a great flight!! I only flew on one charter and all the rest on these with my teams equipment!! Threw out my bed roll my computer and snakes it was better then first class!! One was on a med flight when I was injured in Iraq and it was filled with a bunch of us!! But I also got to fly all over on a C130 witch was a treat!!
I see them everyday. I'm a few miles from Lackland
I miss those old Cold War era engines
KC-135As, now those will stop conversations!
😂@@johns4655
3:06 us airforce still using windows xp in 2022, my associates in Pyongyang will be VERY interested in this!! 😷
"windows xp in 2022" because they don't need later versions of Windows bloatware.🤣🤣🤣
Besides, older C5 didn't have any personal computers in the cockpit at all.
You ain't getting me to jump out of a perfectly good airplane unless it's going down
THE FIRST JUMP IS EASY... YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT. THE SECOND JUMP WILL SCARE YOU PLENTY.

@@davethompson8283 Well, I was in the Coast Guard boot camp, jumping off the diving platform into the pool when I didn't know how to swim was a little terrifying 😬...even with divers in the pool
Great Video…I saw a Westover C-5M (patriot wing) Chicopee Massachusetts in the video…I live in South Hadley Massachusetts….where I live as soon as a C-5M takes off, it’s wheels are just coming up as it flies over my house…(about a mile from end of runway 15…)
The 439th AW now operates ONLY eight C-5M's. The other 8 "birds" were transferred/reassigned to Kelly AFB, TX, after modernization from the "B" models...
@@scoobydubedoo they’re flying right now! I live in line with runway 15..they come treetop level ….right after takeoff..we lived at Westover from 80-97…my dad was full-time AGR at Barnes…
I grew up in Willimansett about 3 or so miles from Westover during the 60s, B52s and KC135s at all hours (during Vietnam)
1969-Vietnam War. The South Vietnam government would not allow us to land-too heavy for their runways.
They should have saved one the C-5A's, because of their GE TF-39 engine for airshows because the unique sound those engines make. I realize the new engines are a MAJOR upgrade. Much quieter and more powerful.
I don't think they're going to save anything just because it sounds cool. Has to be more reason than that! lol
@@valuedhumanoid6574 Dude. How about this then; The epic smoke trails they left behind were so much better to watch than any "rollin coal truck" display brings to the party now adays. Literally blows them all away!! hahaha The downside was it also made them "easy to spot low-flying targets" in Vietnam.
There is one at Dover Afb at the museum that has original engines. It's on display but I'm sure could still fly with maintenance. But I think that's the last one except what are in the boneyard. That's sad that they are out there . I was stationed at Dover and love that old bird. That plane in the video is not one with new engines
I have a compilation video of As & Bs taking off and flyovers.
Love that sound.
@@tonymc55 I have an hour's worth, including the one when a C-5 arrived and exited Poland with a huge crowd of spectators.
❤
✌🏼🇺🇸✌🏼
Our whole battalion fit onto one of these big beasts when we flew to Europe. It takes almost as long to taxi to the end of the runway as it does to fly to Europe.
Plus free baloney sandwiches and juice boxes thanks to Uncle Sam's Misguided Children.
Know what? I have 30 Kangaroo shooters working for me. Trouble is, I can't get the Roos out to market fast enough.
If I put in a runway, can I hire one of these beasts?

And the funny thing the pilots were all kids..what a great job they did to!!
"kids", you mean young men, fossil?
mega scale plane
I flew round trip to R.E.F.O.R.G.E.R. 1977. Had a window seat both ways. What are the odds of that? Yes… you sit backwards.

I have flown in both the C-5, and the C-141. Even helped load the C-5. The seating on the C-5 is much more comfortable. I have also seen more UNREFS and UNREPS, than I care too. On one UNREP, the supply ship lost sterrage (sp?) and a collision occured. Was frightening, as my workspace was above the refueling station. Fortunately, there was no fire.
Blows my mind that everything we use today is from the late 50's and early 60's. It’s 2022…we should be advancing
Yes, dude I was Marine 0431, Embarkation/ Logistics in the early 1990s, the M60 was still the Main Battle Tank, all our 5 tons, canteens, ALICE packs, everything was vintage Nam Era 1970s shit, it was still in decent condition but compared to the Army, especially those guys in Fayetteville, it was shockingly old, C rations were still in many warehouses if I remember correctly.
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
Many aircraft were updated. U
@@apocyldoomer so adding avionics and electronics is ok but there hasn’t been much for new designs, or anything innovative at all in 50 years? C'mon, what I’m getting at is that the best designs of the 60's and 70's are all still here. Obvi we have shitty engineers now. There’s no excuse for not building new equipment.
@@jaredmayer3960 well said, the motor pool would have 30 5 tons on paper, you get there and only 12 work

What means "High-flotation" in German? Google does not translate these words.
Why was other sea/land vehicles displayed in this video? Has nothing to do with the C-5 series aircraft. Please keep on topic.
cadê a curvatura da terra senhores do The daily aviation ???🌏😗😎🤔🤔🤔, é porque a terra é plana né !
It's feet not foot. 19 feet wide not 19 foot wide
Do you think it could take off at half throttle ?
Ofcourse ....why not...🤔
clueless question.😂 All planes require full power for takeoff.
👍Wonderfull🙏❤️
wing nut conundrum
janet pruniers dum dum
william rogers fun
It sucks with the new engines sounds like your ordinary commercial airline
how did a bunch of goofballs on 125 cc motorcycles beat us in the GHAN?
was that a confederate flag he was hanging
Couldn’t get off the ground if it wasn’t at “ full throttle.” Just sayin……….
as all aircraft
Una copia del Antonov
NO, Antonov came later.
"full throttle"! As opposed to what, exactly? Wank.
No use of these old chap so more....😾😾😾
Still in use: 52 C-5Ms!
