Love those TF39s – the sound of 10,000 angry vacuum cleaners.
And the landing gear arrangement is a feat of engineering in itself.
Crank up your speakers as the largest aircraft in the USAF fleet, a Lockheed C-5 Galaxy ( 69-0012 ) screams down the wet, 10,500 foot runway at Gander International Airport ( CYQX ).
The Lockheed C-5 Galaxy airplane, one of the world’s largest and most iconic military transport aircraft, has long been a symbol of American military might. At the heart of this colossal flying machine are its four TF39 engines, which power it through the skies with unmatched capacity and reliability.
