I was lucky enough to watch a similar exercise about 25 years ago while flying a 172 just offshore. Watched a C5 downwind, base and final into Pease AFB runway 16. When he did the touch and go he was climbing out at my 3 oclock. Fantastic and exciting view.
What a wonderful experience
A beautiful aircraft with a well done touch & go. A pleasure to see by a USAF veteran and US taxpayer. Bravo to the crew and Lockheed.
For their size, it is amazing to watch them take off with a load in 3000' of runway even though there was 9000' available. What is even more amazing is not even hearing them take off when you are 1/4 of a mile away from the runway centerline.
The engines on the new M mods are louder it seems. You cannot miss them flying around after Lockheed does the modifications here at the Marietta plant.
I will always be in awe of their size since the first time I ever walked through one when I was 10.

Love watching touch and go's., especially with the big transports. They look like there just floating when on approach.
Brings back memories of my military time in the Control Tower, 1964-68.
