Pretty sure we maxed out the bridge on this trip. 😂 Props to the engineers 👍🏻

I wonder what the motorists were thinking

@mrjohnklake 7 күн бұрын

I believe all designs by the civil engineers are well past the maximum weights of the aircraft here. Maybe double the weight of the C-5 but definitely able to withstand a fully loaded Galaxy.

Big honor to fly the Galaxy. You are very lucky! We used to have C-141s before 2000 at old Athens airport. Now mostly C-17s which are also nice, but C-5 is something else.

@11AviationVideos I was a teenager in the 70's living 10 miles from Norton AFB in San Bernardino California. Every day at 6am, a group of 141s would take off with supplies and 18 year old troops going to Vietnam. At dusk, up to 15 starlifters would come home in V formation over the Inland Empire. It was an amazing site until one day, my dad and I went to the other side of the base to see them up close. I witnessed flag draped coffins being unloaded. I never went back to that side of the base.

Must be at the new airport. I flew C-9s into Hellenikon AFB, from 88-91, when the airport was right beside the Med. Beautiful approach and takeoff...Parthenon and Acropolis always in view. Also have 2500 hours in FRED. Flys like a small plane, but taxiing is a bitch...like moving a building with wings! Good times! God, I miss it!!

The weight imit is 400t. A Qantas B747-400ER (Wunalla Dreaming) of 428t taxi over back in 2004. Also an Antonov An-225 taxi once over that bridge! But all cases the planes was not fully loaded so they were within limits.

@zmangozer1918 7 ай бұрын

AN-124 is a piece of cow dung. This is coming from a C-5 pilot with 2500 hours in FRED. Believe me. Toured one in Cairo during the Gulf War. Cargo compartment isn't even pressurized! Crew has to screw down a submarine hatch to seal off the cargo area before takeoff. Also saw one take off from Kuwait City with 10 feet of the left wing missing...exposed wires and all...I am not making this stuff up. "Safety" is an unknown word to the Russians!

I always thought it was cool that there are airline seat on the upper deck rear end of the plane above the cargo. Yeah there are a few up front along with bunks for the flight crew. Just always thought that configuration was kinda neat. It was designed that way because they couldn’t put seating over the wings due to the wing spars. They would have had to lift the wings even higher.
