Was scanning some slides in that my Dad took in 1974 and there was a few of this bird. I thought it was a cool old pic. The quality sucks because all I have to scan is a flatbed with a lightlid. Is it a C5?

Yep. That's definitely a C-5. C-5A, I believe.

The white topped, non-tactical paintjob is sooo much better looking than today's all grey belluga whale scheme.

Got a macro lens?

Thanks, might have to see what I can piece together one of these days and give something like that a try.

C-5s fly over my house all the time. It looks pretty much like one. They can hold 6 peter pan buses [greyhound, etc]
