Not good news, hope the soldiers are alright.

Herc, you only work on the Marine C-5s right?

Looks like no one was killed, at least.

I work on Navy C-130s. Quite a bit smaller. No fire and no loss of life. That's the amazing part. Also did you read this was only the 4th C-5 to crash since they entered service?

Here's a pic of the two for comparison
The C-130 is the prop job wink

Whoops!

I saw cargo plane and thought it was the same. I didn't even get your branch of service right. Maybe my fiancee is correct about my "listening skills". wink
