Ok, 'bout two weeks ago i was out in my front yard tinkering with the string on my weed-eator. I heard this jet engine noise but it didn't sound the same as the spam cans flying high overhead. I look over at the mountian side and see a C-5 just coming over the top at about 200 feet from the peak. It flew down right in front of me at about 1000' AGL. My jaw hit the ground. It was awesome. I yelled for my son and wife to come look but they could not hear me. Never saw it again and the heavy's don't fly anywhere near that low around here. Wish I had my camera on me.
