The Lockheed C-141 Starlifter was a military strategic airlifter in service with the Air Mobility Command (AMC) of the United States Air Force (USAF). The aircraft also served with AMC-gained airlift wings and air mobility wings of the Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) and the Air National Guard (ANG) and, in later years, one air mobility wing of the Air Education and Training Command (AETC) dedicated to C-141, C-5, C-17 and KC-135 training.
Introduced to replace slower piston-engined cargo planes such as the C-124 Globemaster II, the C-141 was designed to requirements set in 1960 and first flew in 1963. Production deliveries of an eventual 285 planes began in 1965: 284 for the Air Force, and one for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for use as an airborne observatory. The aircraft remained in service for over 40 years until the USAF withdrew the last C-141s from service in 2006, after replacing the airlifter with the C-17 Globemaster III

ICARE,

Please check the attached photo I just grabbed from Wikipedia. I think you have labeled a C-141A as a C-141B, and in the process have given the C-141A a color scheme and inflight refueling receptical it never had. Sorry for the "downer" at the start of the new year.

Change the color scheme to all silver and you will have an accurate image. And the C-141 looked much better in its original length.

Try to not use attachments. Use imageshack or photobucket.

then I do not see the interest confirm false accusations of errors or wrong-way of the topic here


Could Rhade, you explain to me the purpose of your note?

the rest of us do it and everyone can see them no matter where in the world you are and any machine you're on. it is just to login.

What he says: we have limited space here on the forum so we want you to upload it via a page that is meant for it and not as a atachment.

you upload the picture with photobucket or Imageshack .. then copy the link to the image and put it in to the topic / post you have on shipbucket.

photobucket:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=402

Imageshack:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1904

MajHost.com:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=985
