US Largest Aircraft Testing its Massive 28-Wheel Landing Gear

Welcome back to our channel for a feature on the heaving lifting C-5M Super Galaxy and the crazy number of landing gear wheels it takes to land a plane carrying hundreds of thousands of pounds of cargo. Such a relief and pleasure to watch it without a music sound track. I'm surprised no one has come up with a way to pre-spin the tires before landing. Going from zero to landing RPM is brutal. I'll never forget the day a C-5M flew over my house on a low altitude pass. I thought the window panes were going to fall out and the picture frames fall off the walls. It looked like an entire city passing overhead, and I thought at any minute, it was going so slow it was just going to fall out of the sky. Unbelievable! I live in the Appalachian Mountains and occasionally have F-15s doing low passes practicing fire missions. What an awesome sight. But when this Behemoth flew over, it was awesome in its own right! Thank you to the crew for an unforgettable experience.
