   Used to sit on the firing line on range 5 & 6 at Bragg and watch them pass overhead. So big it looked like they were moving in slow motion.

   Hmm, wonder what a C-5 was doing in El Salvador?

   The Air Force sends a weekly “round robin” flight through Central America as logistical support for the various embassies. My guess would be that this was part of that.

   Given that Ilopango is in the vicinity of San Salavdor, the AC is probably on an Embassy Run. It’s also possible they were delivering something for the El Salvador military.

   Nice timing, we had a C-5 from Dover fly over BMS before the game Saturday night
