I didn't see it, but I did hear it ...
Quite a distinctively different sound than the usual C-130s, and C5's, and F-18s that fly around Marietta these days ...

Oddly enough, in the future, it won't be anywhere near as distinctive a sound, as the C5M program ramps up; that program rengines the C5 w/CF6's ...
