 A visitor from Netherlands posted Thu October 20, 2011:I have to agree with the previous commentator that it looks like a C-141 Starlifter... but I very much doubt that it is a (distinct) copy; this is a brand new bird apparently, and probably with glass cockpit and advanced avionics. The Russians are obviously a major player in this field. Btw as this is a lengthening by 6+ meters, I was indeed looking for the tailguard (which it has); but I have to admit I don't know whether the original 'Midas' already had it, too... | |
 A visitor from United States posted Fri March 25, 2011:Looks like a distinct copy of the Lockheed C-141 Starlifter which was taken out of service in 2006 by the US Air Force! A great bird though! | |
| A visitor from United States posted Fri March 25, 2011: An incredibly rare moment. You can see how each pair of wheels rotates at an angle parallel to the a/c axis before stowage. A beautiful engineering solution so rarely seen on photo. 5 stars! | |
