The Lockheed Martin C5 - what a beast

Came across this article and thought I would share . I had the pleasure of performing production control on the C5 retrofit program at the Georgia facility . I never new its actual capacity until I read this article .

She is a beautiful beast at lest that's my biased opinion . A C130 parked next to a C5 looks like a toy ! And a C130 isn't tiny by any means . I am proud of serving in a support role on the F22/F35/C5 and C130 . I don't miss the hectic production pace but I do miss seeing the birds on a daily basis.
