Pictorial history of the largest Cargoplane in the US inventory.
Almost as long as a football field and as high as a six-story building, the C-5 Galaxy is one of the world's largest aircraft and the only aircraft that can transport any of the Army's combat equipment, including tanks and helicopters. Its front and rear cargo doors and 'kneeling' landing gear system enables fast and easy loading of bulky equipment, and its intercontinental range enables it to carry troops and materiel to any area in the world. More than ninety photos, eight color profiles, black-and-white line drawings, color covers. Fifty-eight pages, soft cover, landscape format.
