Cool C-5, Sweet jet.

Well I was looking a my at my An-124 model I noticed how much it looks like a C-5.
I then went on line and found some good shots, I had a good Idea.
So what I am going to try doing to do is make a An-124 into a C-5.
This is what I am going to do.
Things that need to be done
1. Put the the Eleavtors on it.
2. New jets, should not be that hard.
3. Fix the nose.
4. Gear needs look differnt.
5. Painted that Drak grey the Air Force uses.
6. Tail needs to be fixed.
7. Air Force decals.
8. Need to find a number for it.
9. Need new Gear doors.
10. Need to have New York Air Guard on the gear doors
11. There needs to be a Blue Stripe on the tail.
Can anybody tell me what the color is use on the C-5 called?.
I may make a few more if the first one looks good.
And If I am bored enough, I might paint one in Camo.

If you want to know what it might look like look here.C-5, New York Air Guard
If you have anything to say just post.

How did that happen? When I was younger I saw a C-5. I loved how big it was. And when I saw it take off I was impressed.

I am almost done with the nose, I have the jets off, elevators are off and soon to be put on the tail, Working on the tail and starting on the gear. One thing I need is jets. 747 jets are the closest thing that I can get.

I still need to paint it and get the other things that need to be on it done.

But I think it will look good.

And I will make more than One
