That bump you felt was the world starting to wake up. Hope we can finish they job by Jan 20.
C-5 AMP and C-5M Super Galaxy
New C-5 cockpit avionics, installed under the Avionics Modernization Program
Following a study showing that 80% of the C-5 airframe's service life was remaining,[101] Air Mobility Command (AMC) began an aggressive program to modernize all remaining C-5Bs and C-5Cs and many of the C-5As. The C-5 Avionics Modernization Program (AMP) began in 1998 and includes upgrading the avionics to comply with Global Air Traffic Management standards, improving communications, fitting new flat-panel displays, improving navigation and safety equipment, and installing a new autopilot system. The first flight of a C-5 with AMP (85-0004) occurred on 21 December 2002.
The Reliability Enhancement and Re-engining Program (RERP) began in 2006. It includes fitting new General Electric F138-GE-100 (CF6-80C2) engines, pylons and auxiliary power units, and upgrades to aircraft skin and frame, landing gear, cockpit and pressurization systems.[46][103] Each CF6 engine produces 22% more thrust (50,000 lbf or 220 kN),[104] providing a 30% shorter takeoff, a 38% higher climb rate to initial altitude, an increased cargo load and a longer range.[specify][46][105] Upgraded C-5s are designated C-5M Super Galaxy.

Hey there Mister Madman, what'cha know that I don't know
Tell me some crazy stories, let me know who runs this show
Glassy-eyed and laughing, he turns and walks away
Tell me what made you that way
Here I am just waiting for a sign
Asking questions, learning all the time
It's always here, it's always there
It's just love, and miracles out of nowhere
Just some Kansas lyrics that bounce around in my head from time to time
Here I was thinking they were phasing out C5's. Always loved those.
No worries
wow, crazy likeness
Because muh vaccine
We demand to be vaxed so we can pretend the world is normal again.
KEK
Yep, flown in one before. No windows in the seating deck either.
Didn't see this last week, but not surprising.
Proof that they have no intention of letting the vaccine be the end of the story. Masks and lockdowns are permanent, unless destroyed by reason.
If they have their way, you would have to 'prove' you have had it. Vax ID pass, etc.
