This is in bangor maine. I grew up here. Used to watch this plane do the touch and goes all the time. Really great watching, and super loud!

[@smw381st]

Me too and there used to be cliffs close to the right side of the airport and i used to sit there and watch those planes touch and go quite often. Wasn't supposed to be there but back in the 80's and 90's there wasn't much issue with that!

[@TheDirtyChef]

I remember when I was a kid and younger man that we had these flying over the house regularly. I miss hearing this beautiful sound over my head.

[@H-cranky]

It sounds like a vacuum cleaner lol

[@charliecrane8537]

I used to love hearing these fly overhead my home on the Marin Coast near San Francisco flying out of Travis Air Force Base on the way to Honolulu,Hawaii to Hickam Air Force Base in the 1980's and 1990's.They would always be climbing through 10,000 or 11,000 ft on up to their cruising altitudes for the "over the ocean" segment,as they crossed the coast at Stinson Beach and heading southwest to Hawaii.That sound the engines made was unique and one of a kind.

Those mighty TF-39’s just scream! Makes me homesick. I retired from the AF in 1989, and to this day I miss it so much.

[@adamtaylor31]

This is Bangor, I take that highway every time i drive up from Belfast. I probably heard this plane flying into Bangor and jolted out of bed because, well...those engines have that sound that sends me running to the window every time. I used to stand by the flight line as a kid at Elmendorf in Alaska and watch these beautiful monsters howl in from the low clouds. Just awesome!

[@c32load]

I grew up in Newburgh, just south of Hampden off of I-95. I used to hear these quite often as we were typically where they would turn crosswind to downwind leg for touch and goes in the traffic pattern. I worked at Delta at the airport, was a boom operator in the Air Guard unit there on the KC-135's and flew a small plane out of Bangor. I lived in Orrington and Brewer for a while too so I was pretty much in heaven listening to these along with the KC-135's and KC-10's doing touch and goes at Bangor. I moved out of state in 2000 so its been a while.

[@smw381st]

I grew up in Hermon and still live there and just 3 miles from the runway and my son lives 1 mile from the runway

[@shook7674]

I remember growing up in elmendorf watching these and the beautiful f22s. My dad was there as an aircraft mechanics on 22s until he moved to 35s.

[@wilw9607]

I work near Dobbins ARB. Years ago, when I heard that "grinding sound" I would run outside to see the C5 in the air; so big, it almost looked like it was floating.

[@planespottingathamburg]

Wil W Woah that surely sounded fun , to bad i never heard or saw one in person and in that time I didn’t even exist 😢

I remember the sound of TF39, now when C5M arrive at Aviano Air Base, you can't hear the howling of the engines anymore.Sin!!! Tank for the video, very beautiful

[@heatherstub]

I agree; I think it's sinful! I used to dream of those planes on a regular basis after hearing them go over my house for several years until they were replaced with the Galaxy and mGalaxy. There's just something about that haunting and beautiful sound!

Years ago at Travis AFB airshows sometimes the C5 would preform a “high performance takeoff” as it was labeled. With it empty it was unbelievable how fast that thing could get off the deck and climb out at a high angle of attack. It was the largest airplane in the world back then

Correct me if I am wrong, since I used to work on C-5As, at Dover Air Force Base, DE, (during the 1980s). But I believe this would be a C-5A aircraft with the "old" TF-39 engines. The C-5Bs have the new engines. My memory might be shot since I had a minor stroke back in September of 2019. Tony 59-year-old Black Air Force VET 🇺🇸

Is right, but if you take the two powerplants, you find it's the same, but it's good to check if GE and P&W makes an alliance?

[@Tempest-128-TV]

747 or 767, in this case. The A380 uses Engine Alliance GP7200 engines, while the 747-400 uses either the PW4000, GE CF6-80, or RR RB211. The 767 also has three engine options, same as the 747-400.
