man just the thought of a C-5 scares me lol, man those things break down a lot, yours might be different, but the majority do, but they have been in service for a long a$$ time, they do have some nice seats to relax in although they are in the plane backwards, then again this last time i came home on a C-17 that thing came into theater late, broke down in Germany for a day and then it broke down in Charleston S.C for a day and then we finally made it home, seemed like the longest trip home. they land at BIAP and all the other major airports, why would you think they didn't?
