USAF transport planes
-
Anyone noticed the low flying C-17 Globemaster over the South on both 12th and 13th this month? A C-40 Clipper transport aircraft followed shortly after the C-17 did a low fly by of my location on the 13th. Boy was it loud even when approaching my direction. Something is going on. I smell Yanks...

Edit: Changed C-5 designation to the correct designation C-17 -

C-17 globemasters
from kadena enroute to diego Garcia
Ober: probably they were either landing / taking off from/to PLAB.
seen a C-5 Galaxy land @ PLAB when i was in the bus along TPE.
juz above the bus it passed. -
yup PLAB is a frequent landing strip for US aircraft including Air Force 1.
Be it exercises or stopover
sometimes US transport would bring the Presidential Convoy during his visits -
A Globemaster landed at PLAB earlier this evening at 1805 hours. Followed by an unidentified B737 approximately 10 minutes later, most probably a C-40.
