A rare visitor to CFB Trenton today - a C-5 Galaxy from Dover AFB made about 5 touch and goes in the circuit today.

Feb 16, 2011 07:25 | #6 Thanks Peter, glad you liked them. pixelbasher wrote in post #11853462 So cool! I hope to shoot one in the next few days as apparently the Iowa Air Guard is headed to my local AFB for an exercise. Well the galaxy is support for the F-16's doing their exercise. http://www.kcci.com/news/26814148/detail.html Wonder if they'll be able to keep up with our boys?  I haven't seen either plane in the flesh, so I only hope I don't have to work when they arrive/leave, but at least hope to get some of them during their stay. I hope to see your photos soon! Always fun to see planes for the first time.  Attila P.

They always look like they're about to fall out of the sky from going so slow! Nice photos. D700+Voigtlander 40mm+Nikkor 28mm f/2.8 ai-s

Thanks - for a size scale, I prefer 2 taxiing a/c side by side...that gives it a true barometer...at least in my opinion.

They really are a treat to see - I was amazed at how little runway it needed to become airborne again..quite the sight to see! Attila P.
