A study in gray..........




and a "boomers" night view of a thirsty C-5






Fsx, area 51 C-5 & C-17.

Two off the greats , I still dou't the the 17s gear will equal the C5 that crawling under nether it but i would like to see a C5M airshow display , no way to compare against the early version but guest the display should equal the AN124 , as far as my Virtavia C17 .. like to compare both against the AREA51 , biggest thing is A51 will get the extra support since V/A is now near defunct .

As far as externals go, Area 51 has it all over anyone else doing the C-5 or C-17(my opinion)....only thing with the C-17 (i think) its a bit light on texture around the landing gear. Now, if they decide to do a 141........

I,m with you Marty , like everything about VX6 , US NAVY and the the USAF Military machine in Christchurch ,

As boring as many said about Starlifter , seen the A all the way to last , course no difference between a B.C,D , really no diff other than paint and the stretch and other for the Kiddies the late 'D' was all button push navigation if we get one for FSX .

Once again SP, love the military heavies. I also like the night vision thing as well. I did an entire "off the radar flight" in the Iris F-16D with the night vision once.

I wonder if i could get the old Alpha 141's to run in FSX.?...just for screens.....the lightnings moved over ok, and didnt look to bad.

I had i running in FSX pre SP1/SP2 Acceleration days , even had an old full metal paint on the burner , cold war thread shows it there .

your Galaxy looks very purposeful. Often wonder how it'd have been if Boeing had won that contract with what became the 747. Turned out, in the long run, to be a winner for Boeing.

[Ian Warren]

Dave , Interesting that idea , the politics and the moneys and course Lockheed,s position at the time , quiet intriguing look at concept drawings but even thinking about it , did Lockheed rush the program after all we no about the re-wing program , and maybe Boeing had a winner in respect the 747F was able to lift more than a C5A . This is has all changed with the re-engined C5M , did Boeing have it right from the start .
