I wonder if whenever he landed, the thing broke down and needed engine repairs. Every C-5 I EVER flew on, broke down EVERY time we landed. (and needed major repair only in Hawaii - go figure) I have spent nearly two days straight in one of those things and let me tell you....NO FUN!!! Awesome technical achievement though, a real monster of a workhorse. Cool model too, I guess it is true, that bigger flies better. Mike Lavergne
