Well, Today I went to the Air Mobility Museum at Dover AFB hoping to see an old friend. That didn't happen because she is still in a hanger being stripped!!
This place has HUGE aircraft on display beings Dover AFB is a main supply center for overseas.
Here is a link to the website if anyone is interested
http://www.amcmuseum.org./
Well, here are some ramdom shots before I get into the meat of the museum.
Here is the first of many posts!!
Enjoy!!
Welcome to the Air Mobility Command Museum
Ready to roll!!
That's alot of C-17's over there!!
The next two are the only two aircraft that took off while I was there!!
This guy was buzzing back and fourth over the air base like it was nothing!! Spraying fields around the perimeter base.
Yard sale at the base!! How much for that C-17?

Nice catch on the Evergreen seven-four. I've been hoping to catch "947" one of these days.

After farther examination the line has both C-17's and C-5's in it!!
So we were both correct!!
James, I watched Evergreen "947" taxiing back and fourth and I was licking my chops waiting!!

Not sure where you're seeing a C-17 in that line-up, but each empennage I see there is the same as the one in the foreground and that's a Galaxy.......each nose section is the same height and profile..........Galaxy again .......? ?
In any event, a nice shot of a heavy lifter line-up.......

I counted at least ten of the heavies. I thought the one in the far background (with its nose out ahead of the others) was a C-5 and the ones in the front were C-17s. In any event, that's a whole lot o' aluminum there...

The defining area on the C-17/C-5 question pertaining to the empennage, is the junction of the lead edge of the fin and horizontal stab.......very different if you can get a similar viewing angle.........

Well after even further examination I've come to the conclusion that I need to get my perscription renewed!!
Looks like a line of just C-5's !!
