...And A Beginning

...And A Beginning The 445th Airlift Wing received its first C-5A in ceremonies on 3 October, as its mission is changing to strategic airlift. During the ceremony, the crew flying the wing's first C-5 flew over the crowd, landed, and taxied up to the ramp. The aircraft (serial number 70-0457), which was transferred from Dover AFB, Delaware, was repainted with the unit's cream and crimson tail flash and 445th AW designation on the forward fuselage. Eleven major military construction projects, valued at $62.8 million, are under way or planned through FY07 for the wing's conversion to the C-5. The 445th AW will receive ten more C-5As through early 2007.
