| C-5B Galaxy
"Camouflage colors", 60th AW |
A well-put-together
Dragon confection, with all the parts in the right place, and all
the paint, trim, and insignia sharp and neatly applied. However, the
plane in general is an oddball. Does the airforce really think they
can hide a plane this big amongst the trees? And why did they select
the colors they did? It seems the camouflage
selected for the first C-5B would be more effective against a
cement runway or flying under, over, or through clouds. Anyway, that's
not the problem of Dragon Wings, and they did well with what they
had to work with. (Maybe cement colored camouflage with tar lines
running through it would work...)
