Foster Padgette: The question is, how did a plane with no electronics fly 8 hours and crash if a fire took out the cockpit.The whole deal is fishy and I wouldn't be surprised if North Korea was behind it somehow, they are about due for their yearly extortion agenda with rogue missile firings for financial aid again.
Shane Getler: No. I would venture to say that with your poor grades and the high standards the RAF requires, your chances of being a pilot via the RAF are slim to none. At some point you have to pay to become a pilot. You either pay while in school by making a very high GPA or you pay out of your pocket to go through some half-assed flying school and still be behind the curve. You have already made your choice by not maintaining your grades. Better reach for your wallet because becoming a pilot now will cost you a small fortune. Not only that, but you will compete with former RAF pilots for airline jobs in the future. Good luck, you'll need it!...Show mo! re
Rashad Marecki: Lockheed C5 Galaxy is the larger of the two you have listed.The largest military transport is the Antonov An-124. An offshoot of that aircraft is the An-225, of which only two were every produced. That aircraft is the largest in the world. They were designed to transport the Soviet Buran space shuttle.
Gertrude Darke: C17 Vs C5
Mauro Cowee: The C17 is larger due to it's color scheme
Lizzette Wendroth: C-5 by a large margin.The C 17 is to replace the old C 141
Keneth Mailhot: Unfortunately, this withholding of information has become typical of the aftermath of MH370, which has been called the "most botched crash investigation in history."The release of information has been haphazard at best. We are told one thing one day, and the completely opposite thing the next day. And some information is not given to us at all, even when we know they have it.Earlier we were told the plane was definitely hijacked. But yesterday, when th! e Malaysian government announced the plane went down in the so! uthern Indian Ocean, they went back to theorizing that the pilot committed suicide.This is what makes the ordeal all the more frustrating for the families of the victims. They know they are not being given accurate information....Show more
Marielle Hedeiros: C-5
Matt Gerdeman: yes
Carlton Lastrapes: The C5.The C17 replaced the C141The An225 is the largest aircraft. OSTENSIBLY to transport the shuttle, its intended use was to shuttle ICBMs around the Soviet Union
Dick Maisenbacher: The C-5 by about twice as much. The C-17 was meant to replace the C-130 a medium sized cargo plane. The C-5 is the USA's heavy lifter. The AN-225 is the worlds largest cargo plane.
Daren Ventrice: 12,17 & 29
Aron Ramu: As far as I can tell, only the 2:11am and 8:11am handshake arc angles have been released to the public.
Merlin Fleischhacker: you're overestimating the satellite performance. those ARCS that were made public, are simply where the sphere of e! qual distances from the satellite meets the planet Earth surface, with "beyond aircraft physical range" parts pruned.. because that's all the satellite can provide.. the ping and a timestamp, and travel time of the signal..that particular satellite is NOT equipped to pinpoint the angle from which the source is transmitting.all this is elementary radiotechnics.....Show more
Bo Perham: I have 11 gcse's all C's, and my dream job is to be a pilot, helicoptor or plane. I've been thinking on joining the RAF as thats my only way i can see of becoming a pilot, but am asking you's to tell me if there is anyway to beome a pilot and not pay those expensive training fee's!
Emery Blando: The C5.
Chadwick Schmelz: Charlie 5 is larger than C-17. But, for those who've crewed on C-141's there is no replacement. That bird did her provisional time on the front line. To fly her is to love her. My other love was Navy P-2 Neptune, Another Lockheed success. I'll give Boeing! credit for the Buff but I got the best of Lockheed.
Elli Esaw: W! hen you retire a plane, does that mean it never goes up in the sky. I mean the P-51 is retired, and a pilot for that owns a local airport and he flies it once every few weeks. Can you pretty much just walk in to the airport and fly your F-14, take a cruise around the skies?
Bruce Calise: It is KC-390 from Brazilian air force.It's a twin-turbofan-powered KC-390 can be refueled in flight and can be used for in-flight or on-ground refueling of other aircraft.KC-390 is the largest and most complicated aircraft.For more details:
Rubye Bonnin: I shouldn't have to be even more specific:What were the INMARSAT 3-F1 handshake angles with MH370 in degrees as determined by the travel time of the signals for time stamps 3:11am, 4:11am, 5:11am, 6:11am, and 7:11am Malaysia Standard Time on March 8th of the year 2014 AD?I don't need technical clarifications when the clarifications don't effect the premise of my question... give me the results of the data for those times....Show! more
Vickie Sterbenz: And why would YOU need them?Calculating those likely takes a lot of time and efforts, and would not provide much as to the *final* position of the plane. And that is what is desired here: find the wreck. Not where it went through.
Torrie Weissenbach: C-5 is much larger and the AN-225 was larger than the C-5 however it could not travel as far as the C-5 fully loaded. Here are three links to Specs on all 3 Aircraft. http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/air...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonov_An-225http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/air......Show more
Isaias Badgley: Not gonna happen.The remaining intact US Navy F-14 aircraft have been stored at the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group "Boneyard", at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona. As of July 2007, many of the remaining 165 aircraft were being shredded to prevent parts from being acquired by Iran, the only other nation to buy the F-14. By Ju! ly 2007, 23 F-14s had been shredded at a cost of $900,000. Due of the s! trength of the landing gear, it was removed before shredding and cut up with a torch. The last remaining F-14 after demolition will be located at Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida.In January 2007, it was announced by the US Department of Defense that sales of spare parts for F-14s would be suspended, due to concerns that they could end up in Iran. It announced that the decision was taken "given the current situation in Iran". On 2 July 2007, the remaining American F-14s were being shredded to ensure that F-14 spare parts would not be acquired by governments considered hostile to the US. Iran is estimated to have 44 F-14s with some 13 operational as of January 2009....Show more
Bud Espenshade: If your parents didnt program you while growing up to go to college then your probably not gonna go. You will need a degree in aeronautical engineering and a private pilots license to even get looked at. I was there and know what Im talking about. The good ole days of being a ! farmer and flying B-17's during WWII are gone. Most of the pilots I know were in the civil air patrol as kids. Most mothers would never allow their kid to do such things which is why there arent more pilots. My daughters 8 yr old son isnt allowed to even have a plastic toy gun. Women are wierd! . PS after the thumbs down I have to re-comment. we men are warriors and women are nurturers. That GI Jane crap is only in the movies. We all know who the wrench turners are and who slacks, dont we? In the Army, no you dont have a degree to fly but it takes one to pass the board to be a Warrant Officer....Show more
Weldon Totaro: The C-5 is bigger; the AN-225 is bigger yet; but the biggest military aircraft (not airplane) would have been military dirigibles back in the second world war.
Stan Conley: C-5 Galaxy is much larger than the C-17 Globemaster III. The largest military aircraft was the AN-225. It is currently out of service but was a Russian transport used to carry! their space shuttle.
