USAF tribute to Sean Taylor
 

At the game, a C-5 Galaxy, the largest plane in the world, flew over Fed-Ex field and dipped it's wing to the stadium. Believe me, when a C-5 dips it's wing, you notice. Thanks to the pilot for showing respect to Sean Taylor and to the fans at the stadium...

I saw it and mentioned it in a thread. I didn't know it was a C-5 just a HUGH Military Transpot.

Yes, that was too cool.
From an old Marine....Thanks Fly Boys!!

that was bad ass, i didnt know if anyone else saw it, but how could you miss it..

Re: USAF tribute to Sean Taylor
 

I was in section 241 and saw it when it tipped. The crowd went crazy ! Everyone started cheering and swinging their towels IF they were lucky to get one.

I was in 413, and couldn't miss it, since it was just about over my head. Pretty cool.

Section 407. We saw it too looking behind us and was impressed.

I used to live near Westover in MA and they had C-5's stationed there. Let me tell you those things were scary when they flew overhead. So damn loud too. It's amazing to see something that big in the air.

I used to live below the glide path of runway 28 for Naval Station Norfolk (Chambers Field), those things are BEASTS... the amazing thing is as they come in, they fly so slow, you wonder what the hell is keeping them up...and the engines are so loud even idling, you think the world in coming to an end...I remember the first time one flew over coming in, I thought it was in trouble it was so low and loud, I found out later that was actually normal for them...

Incredible birds...

<~~~ Loads C-5's C-17's and C-130's for a living.

If you think they look big flying over head, just imagine being in them or having to load them. Its always a busy night when they come into the Port. Wish I could have been there. Sh!t I wish i could have watched the game on TV.
