For the most part, all we ever get is C130's.

Neat ones to watch come in are the U-2's/SR71 and some of the ones that only transit at night- one of those cover of darkness things. But since half of my warehouses store Aircraft parts I tend to know what comes through :P

We too have an SR71 but unfortunately, it is only on static display along with several neglegted warbirds. No engines even in the SR71. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Looks like a AN-225 Mriya, they have a 1,332,750 lbs take off weight and can carry up to 551,150 lbs of payload. Probably being paid to carry the asskick'in equipment to the mideast. The Russians should carry it for free ,out of gratitude for not kick'in their asses. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]
