Just came across some interesting C5 Galaxy vids on YouTube...
Early morning takeoff from JFK 13L (2004)
Amazing short field takeoff at some sort of air show at SWF (2003) (Anyone know what event this was?)
Bouncy landing of a C5 with a belly full of Chinooks (early 1990s)
They just sound so friggin' COOL! :borat:
It was the 2003 New York International Air Show. It was a pretty good show, the seating was mostly on a hillside next to the runway which made for good photography. The airport stayed open during the show which was pretty cool too.Quote:

Just a fraction of my videos... Dover AFB and Stewart Intl. Airport. Last video is an airshow static display arrival into NAS Oceana.
Man I love the growl on those engines. These are some great vids. :borat:
The C-5 is a pretty incredible aircraft. Last weekend while at SWF I spent a good 45 minutes watching one perform what they call "missile dives" when the aircraft takes off and does many sharp banks and turns and climbs and then spirals right back down with full flaps and gears down right onto the threshold. It was very amazing.
