I spent many hours as a Security Police troop babysitting these babies back in the late 70's at Altus AFB, and saw them regularly during my Air Force career. Flew on one once from Hawaii to California (developed an engine problem out of Hawaii and had to turn back and had to camp out at Hickam AFB terminal for about 24 hours. As soon as the engine was replaced, we hopped back on and completed our flight).

It's pretty awesome watching these big girls take off and land. It's like seeing a flying warehouse-size building.

Watching them at Dover was awesome to see.

No kidding. I watched one land at Barksdale way back when.
It's so big it looks almost like it's hovering as it comes in.

I was Law Enforcement at RAF Mildenhall (SP) and had the patrol car parked near the tower on a very windy day. It was impressive watching that plane crab in for a landing…it was almost completely sideways coming in! Also flew in that when deploying from Hickam AFB for Operation DESERt STORM. Great ride, it only broke down twice on the way!
