How about the "Pregnant Guppy"? Now that is one UGLY transport!

The Guppy comes in here all the time also.

For the most part, all we ever get is C130's.

Neat ones to watch come in are the U-2's/SR71 and some of the ones that only transit at night- one of those cover of darkness things. But since half of my warehouses store Aircraft parts I tend to know what comes through :P

Re: Anyone into Planes??
 

We too have an SR71 but unfortunately, it is only on static display along with several neglegted warbirds. No engines even in the SR71. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Our latest stealth plane.

Used to go to Scott AFB every year to the open house air show...My brother was in for 30 years. One year we had a special treat...an SR71 did 2 fly-bys....first was low & slow...it looked like a needle in profile...the next time he came past he tipped his wings to the crowd...pointed it verticle and went straight up until it was out of sight...never forget the sound and sight of that...my brother was stationed at Clark AFB during Viet Nam and he said it went out at night and came back at night and that air show was the FIRST time he ever actually saw that plane.

Looks like a AN-225 Mriya, they have a 1,332,750 lbs take off weight and can carry up to 551,150 lbs of payload. Probably being paid to carry the asskick'in equipment to the mideast. The Russians should carry it for free ,out of gratitude for not kick'in their asses. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]
